"Life is either a daring adventure or nothing."
~Helen Keller

Look up the word, “minute” in the dictionary and you’ll find

There are so many different exclamations that it will stagger your mind
Minute means miniature, tiny, minuscule, insignificant, downright small
For one thing the way you pronounce the word makes all the difference after all
A minute is a tiny period of time more than a second but much less than an hour
But a decision that took a minute to make wields a lot of power
So within a minute a person can come to a conclusion that will shape his entire life
What was decided within sixty-seconds could bring a lifetime of happiness or strife
Never allow yourself to underestimate what a difference that it can make
Consider the ramifications of that decision and the turns your life may take
None the less, do be afraid to live each minute for all it’s worth
The lessons you will learn in living is why God put you on the Earth
