Stolen Moments
We live in a world that never stops, progress ever demanding.
There exists no time for thinking, no time to ponder.
Only work to be done, a list of endless tasks awaiting.
In this strife we search for balance, an opposite to our constant labor.
We can find but fleeting moments, mere seconds as precious as gems.
With these we make our mark, thieving back the time thought lost.

Some days it seems very difficult to have any time for yourself. Between work, family, biological necessities and everything else that goes with being a human time is very precious. On these busy days I really appreciate the lulls, those stolen moments I get to take back for myself.
