distractions are so captivating,
things like devices, tellie, movies, reading, etc
then there is the family, work, study, domestic chores,
when do you give yourself time
how do you set priorities to ensure they fit between the above
wasting time delays life for soon impermanence will capture us …
nature captivates me, as do people
our interactions, processes and priorities
but distractions take second place to my priorities!

Many times, it is hard to distinguish between distraction and normality. During such times, hard focusing helps out.

We were being surrounded with a lot of distraction nowadays which renders us to hardly focus on the things that matters the most. One must have a great fortitude of disciplining one self to be able to do things that are relevant and worth investing in. Anyway, beautiful piece and it reminds me of my priorities as well. 🙂

This true…we need to see what captivates us rather than dwell on the forces that drives our little world crazy.
