An Hour A Day For A Year

You have the great opportunity to acquaint with the oral history and traditions of different world cultures through the collection of Folk-lore and Legends. At all times folklore allows people to give meaning to their lives and their surroundings, so it is passed down from generation to generation and is kept active by the people in the culture. The wise story “An Hour A Day For A Year” narrates about the value of time in a human life. An hour against a year seems a negligible quantity, but this short volume in multitude forms the mighty time segment. A person who had astonished many by his achievements was once asked how he had contrived to do so much."The year," he replied, "has three hundred and sixty-five days, or eight thousand seven hundred and sixty hours. In so many hours great things may be done; the slow tortoise makes a long journey by losing no time."
