I remember when I was much younger that I was complaining to my parents how busy I was because I have to study for so many subjects and had to do so many things. Tatay just smiled while my Nanay told me, “It’s better to be busy than to be idle”.

I thought about what my Nanay said. Moreover, she told me when one is idle, there is a chance that you think of negative things and you entertain negative thoughts. What she said truly made sense. It is at the time when we don’t do anything or our mind isn’t busy that we think of the most negative things that brings about paranoia, jealousy, envy, lust, greed and the like. These things aren’t healthy thoughts and they could lead us to do or say some things that we might regret it the future.

So, when you feel that you are too busy or you have a full day or schedule, be thankful because you are blessed with work and other things. It is better than not doing anything and being lazy and unproductive. We also make sure that our mind is used and its potential is reached.

Let’s start being busy with stuff.
