And so life races past

Busyness

Commitments

Sicknesses

Sudden events

And everything planned

Gets pushed back

Piling up

The things you must make way to do

The things you have to do

The things you are pressed to do

All piling up against

The things you want to do

The things you would like to do

And all the while life keeps eating time

The time you have

That is limited

As we tire

As we age

As time passes by quickly

Time with the people who are important

Gets pushed to the end of the list

Leaving us even more emotionally drained

Emotionally in need

Of that which gives our lives

Meaning

Depth

Of that

Which fulfils
