Weak and Powerless

Being Busy

,

Why is it good to be busy? After all, the end of the day it's all about being tired, the body asks for a rest when the night is coming. Is all that effort worthless? Besides, if some cash gets in for that, it will never, NEVER, be as much as its deserved.

The time is becoming shorter every day. There's a lot of stuff to do yet, but there's no time, and then thinking about it it's critical. Planning, budgets, thinking ahead, aiming. And the best: all that consumes time, like draining a battery cell to improve how it drains! All that is being busy.

But the price to play it's high. There's no rest in doing what is needed. The mind gets cloudy, and lonely; but still new questions arise, new answers to find, so, at the end, it's always a hurry, a mess, a blurry stuff. Ideas stay for short time, but they want more and more attention because society push us to know everything about everything and yet teach us less and less.

Now, let's be fair. Being busy is not too bad, at least at some degree. How can someone be depressed, sad or angry when there's so much left to do? No relationship can stand a fight against one or both being busy all the time, and so a mate is better a bit far, so each can have its own space, air, music and play. Such experience can be rewarding, sentimentally speaking.

So what is left for us? An amazing way to stay ahead, but at a high price: loneliness and weirdness are just around the corner, and if the mind and body are not ready to recieve them, it could be a terrible experience.
