Living Kindfully

Empty the Account Every Day

Imagine every day someone deposit a large sum of money into your account. You are free to withdraw as much money as you desire. When the new day comes, the account will top up again. The catch is that any money that you kept in the account will not be accumulated.

Every day, you start with the same amount of money. What are you going to do? I think you would withdraw all the money. This so-called money is time. Every day, we are given a finite amount of time. It is up to us how to use it. You can squander it or put it into good use. How you spent your time is up to you. There is no wrong answer. What is important, you must know how you spent your time. As you say good night to yourself, you should be able to tell yourself, what a day.
