| There is a protocol for strangers to become fast friends, if not friends fast. The price to be paid is in time and in deeds done, for while a friendship can be priceless, if you have not spent the time giving the present, the gift may be of little value. Always remembering that time is money and while we spend our time converting our lives into money what we should be doing, is exchanging it for memorable moments so that instead of just living we can say we were alive. To that end… Live each day as if it were the last As if there was no future As if there were no past For there is only now And it goes by so fast. Know that while age is a function of time, the experiences over a lifetime make it also as well, a state of mind It is not something to tell It is not something to be told It is something one must come to know If one is to grow And not just grow old.
