realizing value ...

Never look down on anyone
unless it's as you're helping them upright..

To realize the value of a sister/brother
ask someone who doesn't have one..

To realize the value of ten years
ask a newly 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 the value of one-second
Ask a person who has survived an accident..

Time waits for no one.
Treasure every moment you have..

You will treasure it even more
when you can share it with someone special..

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