Elvis Costello: Rock & Roll Wisdom
“I can give you anything but time.”-Elvis Costello
We can give many gifts to other people, but time is not one of them.
Sixty seconds in a minute. Sixty minutes in an hour. Twenty-four hours in a day. That’s it. We cannot manufacture any more time, nor can we give it away. Time is one thing we all have in common.
What sets us apart is what we do with our time. We can spend time, squander it, invest it, waste it, seize it, kill it or lose track of it.
Personally, I believe in living a balanced life so I regularly do a little of each.
Time is precious, so waste it thoughtfully…or thoughtlessly, if that’s what floats your boat.
