What is meant by 'I don't have time'?
Is it a permanent marker or is it an excuse?
More likely, maybe a disguise,
Because all we really HAVE is time.
What would be a legitimate reason for not having time?
After all, there are 24 hours everyday and, to my knowledge,
We never fill them completely.
Maybe disinterest, apathy, exhaustion, fear-
Maybe there is a reason I don't know
For not having time,
But I hear it being said everyday by everyone.
Listen to some reality.
Everyone has time.
Saying you don't is disrespect for an individual or an activity.
Separate some honesty from your political correctness.
Just say 'I don't care'.
Fewer words.
End of discussion.
