description: Once there was a man who lived with his cat on the edge of a town. He enjoyed keeping his house neat, cooking his meals, tending his garden, and feeding the cat. And at the office where he worked, he was just as tidy and industrious as he was at home. So everything went well until he got the idea of saving time. He decided to do all his chores ahead of time and then sit in his rocking chair being lazy. He dressed for work the night before and slept in his clothes to save time in the morning. He ate breakfast at night, too. In the morning he shaved in bed and ate a big lunch of roast beef and potatoes. He got himself into such a muddle that something had to happen. In the end, he learned that how you spend your time is really more important than how much time you save.
