Few things call your name

And you can count them with your hand

---

Our lives are busy often 
We take on more than we can manage 
Was it imagination 
Or destiny 
That ends up calling our name 
Every morning and every day ?

When life gets bitter 
When we feel sorry for ourselves
Do we stop and wonder
Did this thing called my name?

Only a few things called your name 
That first crush that smiled back at you
That first job that was your destiny 
That first romance that took you places

You can count them with your hand
Can’t you?
So then why is it that 
You take on so many more stuff

And crowd your plate 
Clutter your mind 
So much so that

You don’t have time to think 
You don’t have space to feel
And you don’t have life to live?

It’s only a few things that call your name
Only a few things need you at home

Your spouse
Your child 
Your job
And that would be all

Why do you waste your time 
And your life 
On everything else 
So much so that 
You don’t have time 
For those that belong to you?

Think about this 
Peace ✌🏽
