TIME is Money

Whatever quantum of TIME allotted by the Almighty is fixed for the individual. One can spend the TIME the way one desires but no one can buy the TIME. One may utilize the TIME to generate wealth and be the the riched person on the planet but there is no way the money generated can be recycled to generate TIME. And that’s the reason TIME is very precious, no one can generate TIME and that’s impossible. Therefore make best use of your TIME, if one desires to generate wealth, go ahead, generate as much as one can, but that will be left behind when TIME is up. That money cannot generate TIME.


I am reminded of a story when Man demands more TIME from the Almighty when the TIME allocation was going on. Man was given the intelligence and short span of life but the intelligence didn’t work and greed took over. The additional allotment that was granted by the Almighty didn’t help anyway for value creation. And Man made a fool of himself.

The story is…..
When God created the donkey, he said:"You’ll work day and night, and you’ll carry in your back heavy baggage. You’ll eat grass and you’ll have low IQ. You’ll be living for 50 years." Donkey realized the problem and was intelligent enough to ask for reduction in life span by 20 years.

Then, God created the dog:"As a dog, you’ll guard man’s property and you’ll be his staunch/loyal friend. You’ll eat their leftovers and you’ll be living for 25 years." The faithful creature was clever enough to realize life with leftovers and asked for just 10 years.
Then, God created the monkey:" You’ll jump around, tree to tree, and you’ll act like a fool so people can be entertained by you. You life will last 20 years."  Monkey could imagine what could be the lifr for such long span and desired to live for only 10 years.

God granted what these creatures desired. Last, God created the Man:"You’re a Man. You’re the only sensible being on the planet earth. You’ll use your intelligence to dominance the other creatures. You’ll be in charge. You’ll life will last 20 years." The greed took over this intelligent creature and he he demanded the residual life span of donkey’s 20 years, dog’s 15 years and monkeys 10 years.

The demand was met. Since then Man lives for 20 years as a Man. Then, he gets married and works as a donkey for 20 years by carrying heavy baggage night and day. With his children and lives as a dog, guarding the house and his property, eating family leftovers. And when he grows old, he lives like a monkey. He’s his grandchildren’s entertainer by acting fool.


Be happy with the TIME that you have because no amount of money can generate TIME and with the borrowed TIME one can be anything except Man.
