Busy, Busy, Busy

I found this on my cousin's blog and thought it very applicable to life right now:

Let’s be honest; it’s rather easy to be busy. We all can think up a list of tasks that will overwhelm our schedules. Some might even think that their self-worth depends on the length of their to-do list. They flood the open spaces in their time with lists of meetings and minutia—even during times of stress and fatigue. Because they unnecessarily complicate their lives, they often feel increased frustration, diminished joy, and too little sense of meaning in their lives.

~ Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Life doesn't slow down on its own.  We have to make time for the important things and not let perceptions and unnecessary noise cloud our vision of what's most essential to our growth, happiness and eternal progression.
