What I'm longing for...

A thought: "Here, busyness substitutes for meaning, efficiency substitutes for creativity, and functional relationships substitute for love... Given the right plan, everything in life can be managed except your heart... It whispers in the wind, invites us through the laughter of good friends, reaches out to us through the touch of someone we love. We've heard it in our favorite music and been drawn to it while watching the shimmer of a sunset on the ocean... Something calls us to experiences like these and rouses an inconsolable longing deep within our heart, wakening in us a yearning for intimacy, beauty, and adventure... This longing is the most powerful part of any human personality. It fuels our search for meaning, wholeness, for a sense of being truly alive... Still we find ourselves weary, jaded, or simply bored. We immerse ourselves in busyness without really asking where all the activity is headed." Let me know what you think.
