With endless time, nothing is special. With no loss or sacrifice, we canโt appreciate what we have
Mitch AlbomTake one story, viewed from two different angles. It is the same day, the same moment, but one angle ends happily... and the other ends badly.
Mitch AlbomI thought about the days i had handed over to a bottle..the nights i can't remember..the mornings i slept thru..all the time spent running from myself.
Mitch AlbomBut there's a story behind everything. How a picture got on a wall. How a scar got on your face. Sometimes the stories are simple, and sometimes they are hard and heartbreaking. But behind all your stories is always your mother's story, because hers is where yours begin.
Mitch AlbomTry to imagine a life without timekeeping. You probably canโt. You know the month, the year, the day of the week. There is a clock on your wall or the dashboard of your car. You have a schedule, a calendar, a time for dinner or a movie. Yet all around you, timekeeping is ignored. Birds are not late. A dog does not check its watch. Deer do not fret over passing birthdays. an alone measures time. Man alone chimes the hour. And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear that no other creature endures. A fear of time running out.
