When your family recognizes time is limited but can't slow down together

My siblings and I are all hitting middle age and we keep saying we need to spend more time together because our parents won't be around forever and neither will we, but every family gathering feels rushed and surface-level. We're all so busy trying to manage our own lives that we can't seem to create the meaningful connection we know we want before it's too late.
