Time

Absolutely nothing is more precious than time. If you live to be 80 years old, you have 700,800 hours of life. If you are now 30 years old, you have used up 37.5% of your life, or 262,800 hours. If you live to be 80, you have 438,000 hours left. These numbers are real estimates of the possible quantity of your life. I encourage you to do your own numbers, based on how old you are now and the general longevity of people in your genetic family. It is an exercise which brings your consciousness to sharp focus on a very basic part of what it means to be human. There is no guarantee that you will have more than this moment ot the next. Despite that, it doesn't hurt to keep an awareness of how precious time is and to not waste it on unimportant things.
