End of Year
Staff Breakfast and Awards- June
2nd signifies the last work day for our instructional staff. On this day, we
are having a full breakfast (casseroles, biscuits & gravy, fruit and
scones) catered by The Dinner Bell. The breakfast will be served from 7:30 a.m.
to 8:45 a.m. in the GHS cafeteria. At 9:00 a.m. we will all meet in the GHS gym
for the Staff Awards program. After the awards program, if you have completed
the check out procedure with your principal, you are free to begin your
weekend. To assist us with planning for the breakfast, we are asking each staff
member to complete this Yes or No survey.
The Magic
Bank Account
Imagine
that you had won the following *PRIZE* in a contest:
Each morning your bank would
deposit $86,400 in your private account for your use. However, this prize has rules:
The set of rules:
1.
Everything that you didn't spend during each day would be taken away from you.
2.
You may not simply transfer money into some other account.
3.
You may only spend it.
4.
Each morning upon awakening, the bank opens your account with another $86,400 for that
day.
5.
The bank can end the game without warning; at any time, it can say, “Game Over!" It
can close the account and you will not receive a new one.
What
would you personally do?
You
would buy anything and everything you wanted right? Not only for yourself, but for all the
people you love and care for. Even for people you don't know, because you couldn't possibly spend it all on
yourself, right?
You
would try to spend every penny, and use it all, because you knew it would be replenished in the morning, right?
ACTUALLY,
this game is real and the prize is… TIME!
1.
Each morning we awaken to receive 86,400 seconds as a gift of life.
2.
And when we go to sleep at night, any remaining time is Not credited to us.
3.
What we haven't used up that day is forever lost.
4.
Yesterday is forever gone.
5.
Each morning the account is refilled, but the bank can dissolve your
account at any time WITHOUT WARNING...
So,
what will YOU do with your 86,400 seconds?
Those
seconds are worth so much more than the same amount in dollars. Think about
it and remember to enjoy every second of your life, because time races by so
much quicker than you think.
So
take care of yourself, be happy, love deeply and enjoy life!
Here's
wishing you a wonderful and beautiful day. Start “spending” and have a nice day!
