To realize the value of one year,
ask a student who has failed a grade.
ask a student who has failed a grade.

To realize the value of one minute,
ask a person who has missed the train.

To realize the value of one second,
ask a person who has avoided an accident.

To realize the value of one milli-second,
ask the person who has won a silver medal in the Olympics …

I Love the quintessential message of this poem. Take advantage of every breathing moment you have and try and live the most beautiful life possible. One that you’ll be delighted with.

I apologize for being MIA the past couple weeks…School and work have been taking over my life. This week i’ll be all finished with finals so I will definitely try and catch up and post more often 😉

I have also been wearing ALOT of black the past few weeks and I am not the only one, it’s become New York’s uniform in a sense, everywhere I go I see people outfitted in all black and I must say, you can NEVER go wrong with black and just a pop of color 😉

wearing: Turtleneck Top- H&M, Lace Skirt – TOPSHOP, Pumps – Zara, Sunnies – Tory Burch, Clutch – Aldo, Drop Earrings – Amrita Singh
Hope you are ALL having a Beautiful day!!
Love,
