This life is busy. Busy, busy, busy. Busy from the day we're born, to the day we die. Busy doing this or that. Everything grabs our attention,and doesn't want to leave until and unless attended to. From the unpaid bills to a pile of dirty dishes in our sink, there is so much stress on what to do and how.
Unfortunately, for us humans, the work keeps on piling. Every day, from the time you wake up, to the time you go back to bed, something is beckoning for attention. Some screaming for more attention than others. Some way too annoying, others you'd be delighted to do. Those that your boss forces down your throat, those that you have no option but to do.
Sadly, for many, the busyness ends up killing the joys of life. Too much to do, too little time, so they got to do as much as they can and stretch themselves to the max, just to clear everything in due time. Others just give up altogether, others still pay someone to get it done.
Busyness has also its unfair share of demerits, one of them being it can steal you from what truly matters - relationships. Nothing is as important in this world as relationships. They keep us together, they help us do what we need to. They are our emotional bag of oxygen, without them life can feel like disaster in the making.
So, whatever you do, do not let your busyness jeopardize your relationships. Don't assassinate people at the altar of busyness. Take time to love and be loved, to appreciate and be appreciated, to enjoy and be enjoyed. Most of all, don't forget your Maker, your Lover, your Lord and your God. One who loves you with an everlasting love, whose loving kindness never fails. A relationship with him is most precious, most important, and most rewarding. Love him first and best, don't be too busy for him.
