Acasă Diva's stories Human being or human doing?
I read an article recently on “The Disease of Being Busy” and the effect is has on our lives. It’s a wake up call, an analysis of our current state of mind and way of acting that is slowly leading us to losing our humanity.
Basically, we are too busy to being humans.
This is a dangerous path we are all walking and no matter how aware we are of it, we still find it difficult to change. It has become normality, a normality that is keeping us exhausted and unhappy. And this normality is what our kids see and this is what they will do too. We are even helping them, by pushing them to be better, know more, do more, because our parents pushed us too. I have no idea if we can change dramatically our way of thinking and living, but at least we should be more careful with how we are shaping their future. Because, in the end, we all want them to be happy, and not successful unhappy frustrated adults.
