 * How Do You Measure A Year in Your Life? **



//Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes, Five hundred twenty-five thousand moments so dear. Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes How do you measure, measure a year?

In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights, in cups of coffee In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife.

In five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes How do you measure a year in the life?//
