Enough

People never seem to have enough hours in a day.  But we never get it ‘all’ done.  How do we choose between the good.  The better.  The best.  Do we take the time to really listen, really help, really encourage, really make a difference?

A letter.  A note.  A card. A word. A smile. Or even a thought.

Urgent and important.  How do we decide what comes first?  Our values?  Our Job?  Our family? Work? School? Church? Sports? Activities? Hobbies? Meaningless hours on a screen.  TV. Computer.  Phone. Tablet. Isolation.

When do we stop?  Connect with others.  Connect with God.  Connect with meaning.  Connect with purpose.  Breathe.  Live.

Stop.  See the person in front of you.  Turn every screen off.  Hug.  Hold. Listen. Feel. Connect.  Breath.  Pray.

There are enough hours in a day.  And the people in your life—not just the ones you are related to, deserve the luxury of a connection with you.  

A life well lived is a life connected.  Connected to God, family, friends, and even strangers. 

Hours.  In a day.  There are enough.
