The price of time
To find out the price of a year, ask a student who failed the exam.
To find out the price of a month, ask a mother who gave
birth prematurely.
To find out the price of a
week, ask an editor of a weekly magazine.
To find out the price of an hour,
ask a lover who’s waiting his beloved one.
To find out the price of a
minute, ask a man who missed the train.
To find out the price of a
second, ask a man, that lost a close friend in a car accident.
