Two Extremes

Yesterday, 6:40 a.m., I managed to ride in the fourth MRT that came by the Cubao station. It was jam-packed that no one was virtually moving despite the jerky slow down-speed up movements of the train. I arrived in Ayala Station in around 30 minutes later.

Today, 6:30 a.m, I managed to ride in the first MRT that came by the Cubao station. It was practically empty that no one was standing inside the train throughout the journey despite the number of stations in between Cubao and Ayala. I arrived in Ayala Station in around 15 minutes.

Now if you believe a few minutes do not make any difference at all, think again. Within those few minutes, you could've changed someone's life for the better. Think of this as an opportunity to do something productive for the future or to make someone else's life worth living. It takes only a few minutes to send a text message to someone to make them smile.

Ten minutes might not be much, but it is still ten minutes of the same twenty-four hours we all have each day. Use time wisely.

Time cannot be extended nor shortened.

*unless you have the power to conjure up and say "Time Space Warp, Ngayon Din!"

[nasira bigla yung moral lesson for the day] hehe.
