Twenty-Four Hours

Our whole life, we live twenty-four hours every day. Whether we use it meaningfully or wastefully depends upon what we think.
Twenty-four hours are given by nature, forever and ever. Together with the sun and rain, twenty-four hours goes on and on.
Sun is the guidance of time. When the sun appears in the East, we know the day has begun. The past twenty-four hours are gone, and a new twenty-four hours is coming.
But, to us humans, twenty-four hours have a different meaning. Once our twenty-four hours are gone, they are gone forever. We are growing older, never going back to being young.
Today we may be as strong as an ox, but one hundred years later, we are bones under the soil with worms and insects.
We cannot stop time. What we can do is do things in the course of time, or miss them forever.
How do we live the twenty-four hours well? It is our solemn duty to do so. Happiness or unhappiness, depends upon our wisdom.
