i'm learning to take things slow...
it's an ongoing process for me & something i have to remind myself on a daily basis & teach myself how to do. whether it's rushing around in the morning; downing my coffee & breakfast, throwing on some clothes & running out the door to work...or walking quickly - everywhere (cause i'm just a fast walker) or feeling like i should be doing something when i actually find myself having downtime, we constantly feel like we should be rush rush rushing around, busying ourselves with something or working & accomplishing something - always. i really wish this wasn't the case & i am definitely trying to get better at it.
i want to wake up earlier & enjoy my coffee instead of chugging it back while i'm doing my makeup
i want to leisurely walk to work instead of worrying about being late...unless of course we're running late ;)
i want to slow down & enjoy every bite of my dinner instead of thinking of what i'm going to do next
i want to read every word instead of skimming through quickly
i want to enjoy every moment of time spent with friends instead of letting my mind drift off elsewhere
i want to take time - to take things slowly
we're in no rush...life isn't going anywhere, and if it is it's only going to pass by at an alarming rate & one day we'll wake up & wonder where it all went because we didn't take things slower.
enjoy every moment.
lounge.
linger.
let things be.
it's okay to stop.
it's okay to walk a little slower.
take it easy.
