Why This Effort?

Quote

People are walking

People are running

People are waiting

But why?


A rush is everywhere

Hurried glances, anxious eyes

A murmur is present in every face

The desire to go, yet stuck as if nailed in place


Every day, every day, rising from bed and leaving as if enduring an endless torment

And there is a return, like an ambulance trying to make its siren heard above the honking


A sense of urgency is everywhere

Like people scrambling to avoid the rain pouring down as if from a tipped glass


If you ask why this haste

Thousands of people before your eyes cannot give you an answer

Why this struggle—the desire to go but inability to escape

Perhaps if you ask why not escape

Thousands of people have never questioned it


They have surrendered themselves to this flood, unable to resist being swept away

Perhaps thousands have simply not cared

This false wheel, it is not my concern

Let it spin, I will mind my own path—thousands of people say this


People are walking

People are running

People are waiting


But why and for what?

They do not ask these questions

Thousands have never thought about them—or have avoided thinking


Yet there is another truth

A genuine meaning, and a clear, unmistakable truth that answers these very questions!
