A Watch and A Ruler

Wednesday - June 19, 2013 10 PM.

I just completed a draft of my weekly report, so that tomorrow morning I just need to send it across.

Almost time to sleep now, but suddenly I just thinking about the time ... the time we have gone through, the time where we are right now ... and the time in the future where we are going to go through ...

Maybe all of you have ever thinking the same thing as I think right now ... 

Lets do simple following equation ...

1 day is last for 24 hours, ideally we utilizes 16 hours of it for doing all things for living, while remaining 8 hours is the allocation for us to taking rest ... or sleep. Roughly we may say 1/3 of each day in our day is dedicated for sleeping ... do you agree so far? Good ...

In a month, 30 days multiply by 1/3 = 10 days of sleeping
In a year, 365 days multiply by 1/3 = 121 days of sleeping  

Lets take an example, average a human's age nowadays is approximately 60 years- don't worry this is only to make the calculation easy, I hope all of us will live more, more and more prosperous.

Lifetime = 60 years
In days = 60 x 365 = 21,900 days
Number of sleeping day = 21,900 x 1/3 =  7,300 days
Then we convert it back into year = 7,300 / 356 = 20 years

Amazing, within 60 years of our time, we utilizes 20 years of it only for  sleeping !!

In other words, we only have 40 years in our time to deal with everything in our life. I think it is pretty short right? 

Now, suppose you have a ruler which is 60 cm long, in which cm are you now? What have you done in previous cm? How many cm more you have before it reach 60? What is your plan to fill it? How well you prepare for it?

Ok, I am sleepy now, time to spend remaining 1/3 day to its purpose ... Good night and sweet dream !
