fulfillment

We've become obsessed with the idea
Of being busy
Fulfilling activities
That are unneeded

When you stay busy
Time goes faster
Life was faster
And in the end
You realize
You never embraced
Life in itself

You could have done
Everything you possibly wanted
But embracing life
The smaller things
The details
Is much better
Than fulfilling
The whole

...and the 'whole' seems more like a 'hole' when the details aren't appreciated.
