Don'T Get Too Busy

There are times in our lives when we get caught up in the Busyness of the day and some Things we mean to do get pushed out of the way But that's no excuse when feelings get hurt The busyness of life should Never come first You see I speak from experience I've gotten busy with the Busyness of life hurt someone dear And brought about to strife We don't mean to do it It just happens that way And if we don't catch it The cords of family and friendship Start to fray Don't be like me don't get too busy Nothing is more important than Family and friends If you slow down now and get focused Again In time the frayed cords of family and friendship will mend

Great message here Ed. True how we get so busy and lazy at times and we let those important matters aside for later and the later just keep getting longer :)
