Home Or Weekend Spot?

In today's busy world,people working almost 24/7,life has become so hectic and difficult that we can't even spare a day for the family.With moms working from morning till evening and Dads staying out-of-station for most of the time,the kids have no other option than to spend their time with the maid or other family members. Life has become so mechanical in recent years,waking up with monday morning blues,starting off to work travelling hundreds of kilometers,with only books being their sole companion,staying away from the rest of the family for almost 5 days a week and coming back home for weekends...It makes me feel as if the house is no more a home but has become a weekend spot for such workaholics. It makes me remember a poem that i had learnt in my school days
"In this life, full of care,
there is no time to stand and stare"
Oh,how true it is!! It took me 15 years to understand the true meaning of this... Home,once filled with love,care and warmth has now turned out to be a weekend spot...What a pity !!!
