Life is so busy, is it not? We run from one thing to the next. Jump from the car to our homes only to return again. We rotate friends often dependent upon new interests and drifting apart, or disagreements that cause the friendship to shatter. Activities come and go. Life just spins constantly. We seem to plow through the years so quickly that we don’t even realize how much we are missing or how fast things are happening.
However sometimes, hopefully rarely we receive news that causes us to almost halt. We see everything different. We watch everything fly by and we seem to be in slow motion. We savor the looks on our children’s faces a little longer. The hugs from family seem to last a little longer and tighter.
We reach for our phones a little slower. We read texts a little more intensely. Life has been altered, never to be the same. For a time we go back to enjoying time instead of bustling through it.
My advice do it everyday. Slow down! Enjoy! It’s going fast and it can change in a moment.

Thank you! It’s nice to be reminded sometimes to slow down, even though David tells me that I have two speeds, slow and reverse. Even a turtle needs to slow down sometimes.
