At the park one day, a woman sat down next to a man on the bench of the playground.
She initiated talk with the man sitting on side saying, “That’s my son over there.” pointing toward a boy wearing yellow t-shirt.
“He’s a fine looking boy” man replied. He added, “That’s my daughter on the bike in the white dress.”
Then looking at his watch and called his daughter. “What do you say we go, Sona?”
Sona pleaded, “Just five more minutes, Dad. Please? Just five more minutes.” Man nodded to allow her to ride her bike. Minutes passed.
Father stood and again called his daughter, “Time to go now?” Again Sona pleaded, “Five more minutes, Dad. Just five more minutes.” The man smiled and said, “OK.”
Seeing this conversation between father and her girl woman said,”My, you certainly are a patient father.”
The man smiled and then said, “Her older brother Tom was killed by a drunk driver last year while he was riding his bike near here.
I never spent much time with Tom and now I’d give anything for just five more minutes with him.
I’ve vowed not to make the same mistake with her. She thinks she has five more minutes to ride her bike. The truth is, I get Five more minutes to watch her play.”
Moral Of The Story:
Life is all about making Priorities, and family is one and only Priority on top of all Other, so Spend all Time you can with Loved ones.
