Summary

This quote suggests that in the fast-paced and busy modern society, people often don't take the time to truly understand and connect with one another. As a result, love and affection may exist between individuals, but it goes unrecognized due to the lack of meaningful interactions. It highlights the irony of living in a world where love is abundant, yet hidden and unrecognized because of the fast-paced nature of life.

When I look back over my life it's almost as if there was a plan laid out for me - from the little girl who was so passionate about animals who longed to go to Africa and whose family couldn't afford to put her through college.
