Why go on living? This question can be answered with one word. Sharing.
You see, when a person is born, time is created. That’s right; time is created.
Think about the story of a 17 year old football star who volunteers his time helping a handicapped kid.
The time the young man gives to the kid is cherished; yes, cherished by that handicapped boy. Everyday the young man is to arrive, the child begins smiling, gets happy and nothing, not even his physical conditions can get him down.
If the young man had given up at age 13 when his classmates were bullying him; if the young man’s mother had given up on her pregnancy 17 years earlier, then the time spent with that handicapped boy never would have been.
So you see, time is created at birth. Simply not wasting it; not throwing it away when it can be shared with others is a very good reason to go on living.
The time created when you were born is extremely valuable. Don’t waste it. Don’t throw it away. Find a way to share it. Then, as the young football star discovered, you will get more out of the deal than you could ever imagine.
