Time is very important in our life. However, I had never realized it until I received a beautiful gold watch from my father one day when I was 19 years old. This always tells me the importance of time in my life.

I said hello to them in a very low voice. My father didn’t say . Instead, he asked me to sit next to him. “Peter, did you have a good time today?” He very disappointed, but his voice was still calm.

It was a gift my uncle bought for him. He gave it to and said. “I hope you have learned something important today, and this watch will help you remember the importance of time.”
