Working

How many of you out there stop and think about your life? Everyday we are so busy and for those full time professionals out there living the corporate life - the world does not seem to stop for even a minute or a second, even when you face any life crisis like when a family member is diagnosed with an incurable disease or when you lost someone you love - the world mercilessly goes on and does not spare any pity or thoughts for you. Demands from your bosses your peers continue to come in, you continue to face office politics and no, nothing changes and the world continues in its craziness and insanity.

Sometimes I question the meaning of our short life our short existence on this earth. I mean, I know God gives us life for a good reason and I thank God for that. What I question is our struggle in life, why we get so bothered sometimes over office polictics or some interpersonal issues at home and at work, why we continue to live life like so carelessly, to be so mindful about trivial issues, to get angry about things that have so little impact in the largeness of the true meaning of life. What happens to the truly important things and people in our life? They become neglected and forgotten as we continue to get overwhelmed by the unimportant things in our lives.

I question myself these things because this is exactly what I am doing now, I am living everyday like a crazy mad and very tired women. I continue to struggle with a heavy workload, get angry with small little things, living in guilt because I don't spend time with God and with my children and feeling so physically and emotionally tired all the time. What will it take to recharge me. I know the answer is simple I need to cast my cares upon Jesus and go to Him to seek peace and comfort. Why why does stubborn me continue to cast my cares on the world??
