I'm in a hurry, please hurry!

[saskat_che_wan]

i wake up, rush to get the kids ready for school, then myself to work
i'm in a hurry, you see

i get to work, finish all that needs to be done
run errands, there never seems to be just one,
i even manange to go to the gym on my lunch hour
i'm in a hurry, you see

i hurry home
i hurry to get the kids to finish dinner, homework, then some
i'm in a hurry, you see

i kiss the hubby goodnight and make sure i have enough sleep for the night
i'm in a hurry, you see

Some days feel like a rollercoaster ride. Some rides are rougher than most. I feel like the whole world around me is spinning, there's no time to stop. but i know when the rollercoaster ride stops, you have this unsettling feeling that something really great and exciting happened, but you can't pinpoint exactly what it was in the short time of the ride. that's why you ride again, and again, and again. because it's not the end of the rollercoaster ride that matters, it's THE RIDE.

so today i will not be in a hurry. i will stop praying please God, please God, please hurry hurry hurry along! because really, when you ask me what i'm hurrying for, i can't answer! it's just that general feeling that i ought to be doing something else, something better with our lives. i am missing the point completely. i don't want to be the one to do something. i want to follow the direction God has chosen for our lives.

it's the journey i should be focused on, not the destination.
