When you see a man selling handkerchiefs and still sweating profusely in traffic, it tells you that possession is not the same as ownership! Your life belongs to God; you are only having it but you don't own it. So, be careful what you do with your life before the owner asks for it.
The last wishes of Alexander the Great.........
On his death bed, Alexander summoned his army generals and told them his three ultimate wishes:

1. The best doctors should carry his coffin ...

2. The wealth he has accumulated (money, gold, precious stones) should be scattered along the procession to the cemetery ...

3. His hands should be let loose, so they hang outside the coffin for all to see !!

One of his generals who was surprised by these unusual requests asked Alexander to explain .
Here is what Alexander the Great had to say :

1. "I want the best doctors to carry my coffin to demonstrate that in the face of death , even the best doctors in the world have no power to heal .."

2. "I want the road to be covered with my treasure so that everybody sees that material wealth acquired on earth , will stay on earth.."

3. I want my hands to swing in the wind, so that people understand that we come to this world empty handed and we leave this world empty handed after the most precious treasure of all is exhausted, and that is : TIME.

We do not take to our grave any material wealth. TIME is our most precious treasure because it is LIMITED. We can produce more wealth, but we cannot produce more time.

When we give someone our time, we actually give a portion of our life that we will never take back . Our time is our life !.

The best present that you can give to your family is your time

May God grant YOU plenty of TIME, to share this important message with all your contacts.
We all forward jokes and other messages...pls forward this message to all your friends and request them to forward it to their friends too.

Pls every living person should read this
 
Trust me! Time! People don't know or may be they do but they are yet to appreciate the gift of life which is family! Give them time call them often appreciate little things they do to you, show them and tell them how much you love them and what they mean to you! I love my family to death and I'm sure even if I we apart now, Atlst I won't have any regrets about the time I shared with them! I was telling one of my cousin same thing about time cos she always busy but you will see her on fb or Instagram having goodtimes with friends while her family complains how busy she say she is how they miss her... Trying to remind her all material things will go but in your heart make sure you won't have the ' I wish I did' u know what I'm saying

but again, each to their own.

Everyone sees life differently. Some think its a game, some think its a gift, some think its a 'phase'
 
I don't think if it's necessary to preach about death while we are still alive. If you die you are done to let others live nothing changes whatever we do
