"I feel that books, just like people, have a destiny." -- Elie Wiesel


Time goes.
Time flies.
It runs.
It hides.
Days get closer.
Ever faster.
Ever nearer.
Time scampers and scurries,
Drawing nearer by the second.
Just now, a few seconds are gone.
Gone, never to be returned.
Time is always running towards us,
Full speed ahead.
Time bends and turns and twists
In ways we can’t understand.
So we think to ourselves,
“Oh, God! Lend me a hand!”
We lose time each day.
Our time doesn’t last forever.
So what must we do?
We must live and love and hope.
We must live.
We must live for Him.
Praising Him during all our time,
Both the good and the bad.
We mustn’t cut our time short.
For our life isn’t a book,
So we ourselves mustn’t end it.
So in the time that we have,
We must live and love and hope.
We must love.
We must love Him,
Our God,
Our Creator,
With all our heart and soul and mind.
With our time, we must praise Him,
Our one and true God.
We must obey Him and His laws,
For if we honor our father and mother,
Our days just may be extended.
We must live and love and hope,
No matter dreary and sad our life and time may be.
We must keep our hope in Him, at all times.
Time goes.
Time flies.
It runs.
It hides.
And in our time, what must we do?
We must live and love and hope.
For the Lord, our God, is watching,
And one day,
We will be rewarded.
Rewarded with everlasting time!
