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.
