The greatest lesson in life
Is about time
And how it should never be wasted
Or used up doing things
That you don’t find worth your while
For one day
You may wake up
And find that your time’s up
And you haven’t lived a life you are proud of
For everyone’s time is limited
To a certain unknown expiration date
And to truly make full use of our limited time
We must enjoy things that we love
Be it a person
A place
A job
Or even a favorite chair
We mustn’t live our lives waiting for them to start
We must live in the present
Appreciating it for the gift it is
Never taking advantage
Never wasting it
Never doing things you will regret
Or not be proud of later
Never wasting the preciously little time we have
This is the lesson I hope to learn
So I can live the life I mean to
Surrounding myself with the things I love
With no regrets
