Slow down.

16 hour workday just to provide
Everything for his little tyke
No time to sing a lullaby
or give him a piggyback ride
TV babysitter, toys are a bribe
as he speeds out the doorway
and the car leaves the driveway
The boy runs after his father
but his steps are too small
He stretches out his hands to reach him
as he tumbles and falls.

Slow down,
I can’t keep up with you
You’re getting a little too quick
for me to follow
Slow down,
you’re getting away from me
and I don’t know how to slow you down.

Many of us are just like the father in this story.
Striving too hard for the comforts of this world.

Often our eyes are so fixed onto the goals such as the riches and fames. And we've neglected the essential stuffs that needed to be fulfilled first. Just like the child getting neglected by the parent.
Even if these goals are achieved, we'll never find the joy at the end of the day, let alone during the proccess.

Why? It is because fruits that are beared through this methodology of sowing will never, and can never compare to passionate sowing where the fruits are reaped with abundance.

In this case, its just like the bribes that the child receives in this story.
