A jewel called time-today’s musing

This post of mine is again taken from Chankaya neeti,where chanakya is emphasizing the value of time through his quotes; here it goes:

Adha: pashyasi kim baale patitah tam bhuvi

Re re murkha na jaanasi gatam taruNya mauktikam

Chanakya asks an old lady: What have you dropped down on the earth,that you’re searching so intently like a young girl? the old lady answers: O’ fool I’m searching for a pearl named ‘youthfulness’ that I dropped here years ago (not knowing its value)
