Five minutes is huge.
Five minutes can be like 1000 years to some.
It can be like one second to others.

You can waste five minutes
you can use five minutes

what if this is your last five minutes?

Five minutes.

Doesn’t seem like much does it? but five minutes is key. who of you knows the days of your life?

We don’t know. we can’t know.

but if we did know

would we do anything differently?
would we change who we are in that five minutes?

would we pretend that they weren’t our last?

or would we take full advantage of them
and squeeze everything we could into every second?

what would we do with our last five minutes?

lament over all we’ve lost?
gripe over what was supposed to be ours?
be angry over an offense that was made?

or would we rejoice over what we’ve earned?
be glad for all we had
and love those around us?

would you be proud of them?
want them spoken of and known about?

or would you want them hidden from view and forgotten?

would you use them to your advantage?
or keep them selfishly to yourself?

are you doing everything you can in these five minutes?
