SAVE

Today is National Teach Kids to Save Day.
Of course, most folks think of banking.
Not me! Because, you know, I'm special.

Yes, by all means, teach them about finance ~
credit, debt, loans, putting money away, etc.

But, perhaps more importantly,
teach them about saving time.
Don't fritter it away always working.
Make time each day to enjoy what's around them.
Make time each day to talk to people you love.
Make time each day to just exist - no craziness, just breathing.

Teach them about saving people.
None of us gets out of here alive.
Teach them to nurture and care for others.
Teach them to help when they can.
Teach them to be a good neighbor.

Teach them about saving memories.
When surrounded by the right people at the right time,
the memories will be unbelievable.
Intangible to others, these are treasures we keep,
held close to our hearts for eternity.

Teach your kids to save.
Teach them to save the right things.
