Carpe Diem!

I'm not usually a fan of e-mail forwards, but I thought I'd share. This came from one of my aunts:

To realize
The value of a sister/brother
Ask someone
Who doesn't have one.

To realize

Divorced couple.

To realize
The value of four years:
Ask a graduate.

To realize
The value of one year:
Ask a student who
Has failed a final exam.

To realize
The value of nine months:
Ask a mother who
Gave birth to a stillborn.

To realize
The value of one month:
Ask a mother who
Has given birth to a premature baby

To realize
The value of one week:
Ask an editor of a weekly newspaper.

To realize
The value of one minute:
Ask a person
Who has missed the train, bus or plane.

To realize

To realize the value of a friend or family member:
Lose one.

Time waits for no one.
