Rarity, though, is relative. If all I have is two small coins, then even one of them is rare for me. Both together match, as far as I am concerned, a royal treasury. My pockets bulge with small change, so giving it away is not parting with treasure. For most of us, I think our treasure is not measured with coin counting machines, but with clocks.
Time is our treasure.
We add one day to the calendar every four years, but some of us feel that we should add an extra hour or two to each day. We are busy. There never seems to be enough time to do all we have to do, let alone all we want to do. Not only do I not have enough time, I have less and less of it every moment. I am running out of time.
