Cherish The Moment

A second, a minute, an hour, a day, a year; yet another swept away before my eyes.
I watch in desperation, knowingly letting them slip by, yet yearning to stop them at all costs.
Every precious and lost moment feeding upon my conscience.
Why did I not try harder to make them last instead of wishing them away doing unlinked tasks.
Most of us spend our lives doing monotonous, routine jobs, merely so we can survive this money hungry jungle.
We long for weekends and holidays, writing off the rest.
Is it not pitiful that we do not cherish every precious second that is ours?
How dare we wish away this gift of life, more precious than anything man can own.
Live for today and don't count on tomorrows.
Tomorrows build up, becoming lost, empty castles of yesterdays; leaving barren, forgotten lands of time gone by.
Cherish each moment for it may be your last!

How true is that seconds, minutes...just slip through our lives. Always enjoy every moment now, put things into perspectives, so what you are in the exam, meeting a date line, waiting for someone, queing in the line..... enjoy the moment....
