A Strange Desire to Be Busy

"Peter Kreeft is right:  "We want to complexify our lives.  We don't have to, we want to.  We want to be harried and hassled and busy.  Unconsciously, we want the very things we complain about.  For if we had leisure, we would look at ourselves and listen to our hearts, and see the great gaping hole in our hearts and be terrified, because that hole is so big that nothing but God can fill it."" - quoted in Crazy Busy, DeYoung, p83
