Time | Every opportunity has a shelf life
Whenever people ask me what’s the most important gift you can give to someone, I only answer them this – TIME.
You see, the most common answer to that is Love. But the thing is, you can love lots of people at the same time (maybe to a different degree, but that’s still possible – like you love your parents, you love your siblings, you love your friends…). However, you can only be with one person at a time; and the time you spent (or did not spend) with that person, once lost, can never be recovered.
This is why there’s such a thing called “Quality Time” and “Quantity Time”. You find time to spend it with people that’s important to you – the people you love.
More often than not, we take those “important” people for granted, thinking that they will always be there… Keep in mind that “Every opportunity has a shelf life” (Burlesque Movie 2011). So whenever there are opportunities to show them how important they are to you, take it. For you may “never pass that way again”.
This is me taking the time and the opportunity to thank my Nth level friends for the wonderful friendship we have shared (some for more than a decade now). 0:D I will not be who I am today without you.
Gracias.
