Why so Busy, ah?


Man is a mere phantom as he goes to and fro: He bustles about, but only in vain; he heaps up wealth, not knowing who will get it.
(Psa 39:6)

A few nights ago, I saw an elderly couple running toward a bus stop as the bus was approaching. I guess they wouldn’t want to miss the bus and had to wait for another 10 minutes or so. I believed the bus driver might have noticed them (like me) running and was kind enough to wait for them at the bus stop.

My first thought was: “Why the hurry?” It was about 9:30pm. I was taking my usual stroll and reflection.

Yes, why so busy ah?

Am I bustling about in life, only in vain?
