As the hour glass drains
what is important to you?
Each grain is a precious moment
that cannot be reclaimed.
What have you left undone?
What else do you wish to accomplish?
Consider your answers well.
You are not promised another day.

The hour of one's death is fixed.
What is not fixed
is how we spend our life.
Use these hours well.
They are as precious
as any treasure
you will ever find.
* *
If you were about to die
and the Angel of Death
gave you time to do one thing,
what would that be?
Consider your answer well.
It will describe
how you lived your life.
And if you are unhappy
with your answer,
remember while you are alive
there is still time to change!
