Our Time


The most precious gift we can give someone
 is our time.
It is the one commodity we cannot
replenish.
It is priceless, once it is spent
it cannot be recovered.
Giving of yourself whether through
volunteering, lending someone
a shoulder to cry on
or a willing ear to listen...
there is no greater gift.
"The world is not interested in what we
do for a living. What they are interested
in is what we have to offer freely -
hope, strength, love and
the power to make a difference."

  2. Oh this was a good, true word. People want to know what we have to offer and all too often, we are too empty to pour anything out.
