 Busyness has become not only a way of life, but a status symbol. We don't want to ask somebody to do something because we know they're so busy. To be busy is not a bad thing, because God does want us to lead productive lives, not sitting idly wasting precious time. But there is such a thing as being too busy. Too busy means that meals are done gulp by gulp, rather than taking the time to savor bite by bite. No leisure time also means no time to enjoy life.
