we need to stop the
glorification of busy.
we are all “busy”
with something or the other.
how is one person’s busy any busier than that of someone else?
why do we live under the impression
that more busy = more important?
or more busy = more successful.
it’s not how busy you are
that counts.
it’s what you are busy doing that does.
and the bottom line is, no one has time for
anyone or anything that doesn’t hold a certain value.
the next time you casually tell someone
“oh, i was just busy”,
take a moment to step out of your mind
and ask yourself if that’s the truth, a subconsciously cultivated habit or a mere excuse to prove a point you’re afraid to face.
we’re all a different kind of busy.
and our busy-ness is worth nothing
if we aren’t intentional about what we are busy with and who we make time for despite
all the busy-ness.
