[MTC Global] ALEXANDAR THE GREAT:

DEAR FRIEND,

"Life is more strict than a teacher.

A teacher teaches a lesson first & then takes an examination.

Life takes examination first & then teaches a lesson."

 


PERHAPS WE SHOULD ALL GIVE THIS SOME THOUGHT. 

 

 


The last wishes of Alexander the Great:

On his death bed, Alexander summoned his 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) shouldbe scattered along the procession to the cemetery, and
3.  His hands should be let loose, hanging 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, stays 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 handedafter the most precious treasure of all is exhausted, and that is TIME.
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 lifethat we will never take back.
Our time is our life.
