PARAGRAPH
There is a proverb saying, “Time is money.” But in my opinion, time is even more precious than money. Because when money is spent, we can earn it back. However, when time is gone, it will never return. This is the reason why we must value time. So, you should make the best use of your time, gifts and opportunities to show the best of you to the world.
