March. Is it really here already? Where does the time go? March is a month during which the season of spring is welcomed after the long winter. Recently I read some thoughts on time and what a precious gift, time is. Time is a treasure. Each day is precious with 24 hours to use as I choose, and to spend at my own discretion. Time is life's greatest asset, a generous gift from the Creator, yet not one hour may be stored for the future. And our affluent society, no one can beg, borrow or buy an additional day. Even the most fabulous fortune cannot purchase the fleeting moments, or call them back once they are gone. Time waits for no one. It travels swiftly and in silence linked with the rising and setting sun. Like a vapor, it is here one moment, and gone the next. Days disappearing so quickly that we sometimes stand in utter amazement and ask, "Where has the time gone?" If challenges have been met with courage, tasks accomplished to the best of our ability, and warm meaningful relationships made along the way, then we may say with certainty that this day has been lived to the fullest.

Warm thoughts: Take time to pray. It is the greatest power on earth. Read. It is the fountain of wisdom. Think. It is the source of strength. Love and be loved. It is a God given privilege. Give. It is too short a day to be selfish. Be friendly. It is the road to happiness. Laugh. It is the music of the soul. Play. It is the secret of perpetual youth. Work. It is the price of success. Take time to have many warm thoughts.
