VALUES
“A person who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life.”
~ Charles Darwin ~
Life is not to be wasted. Time is not to be wasted. Friends, relationships, and opportunities are not to be wasted. Why? Because as a vulnerable human being, I do not have ultimate control. I do not know when my life will end, when I shall die, or when time and opportunity will be no more! Life is too precious to waste.
As an addict, I did not value life or time. I did not value friends or relationships. Nothing was valued except the alcohol! My life was meaningless. God was absent, and I felt nothing.
Today this is not the case. Through my pain, I have found the value of life and discovered a God of my understanding.
God, let me value what I have while I have it.
