Precious, Precious Gold

Recently the price of gold has sky rocketed to the extend that laymen like us decide to invest in gold savings accounts. Even banks are jumping into the bandwagon, offering gold savings accounts to the average joes on the street.

In reflecting the price of precious metals as gold, I realize that other than precious metals, there are other things in our lives that are more precious than precious, precious metals.

As we grow older, we will realize that:

Time is precious,
Love is precious,
Family is precious,
Father is precious,
Mother is precious,
Siblings are precious,
Spouse is precious,
Children are precious,
Grandparents are precious,
True friends are precious,
Old friends are precious,
Golden memories are precious.

And we could not buy all this like we buy gold. However, we can invest in them, unlike investing in gold. We can spend more time with our precious, and appreciate our precious and let our precious know that they are precious.

And I am sure at the end of the day, the value of our precious are much, much higher than any precious metals in the world!

There are so much things to do, yet so little time to do it. Whoever said a housewife has all the time in the world is so wrong. Guess I need to focus, focus and focus, to do one thing at a time and enjoy it together with my family as much as I can.
