hiking

Sometimes it seems as though going faster will make all the difference, when really, slowing down is, at times, the best thing we can do.

This world is fast-paced. We live in a time where there are so many conveniences that make it easier for us to constantly be on the go, but how helpful is that for us? Is it really better, in the end?

Eating foods that are prepared and packaged, or out of a hot bin, rarely making anything, let alone enjoying the process of cooking.

Scrolling through newsfeeds to see how our friends, or loved ones are doing rather than reaching out to them.

Time…

Never enough of it, and yet we don’t always appreciate the steadiness of it.

Sometimes we think we need to speed through a meal, a hike, a project, or even a conversation because we, “don’t have enough time”. What is it that makes us this way? And why can’t we, instead, remember that each minute, each moment is precious and we would greatly benefit from slowing down.

This life holds a lot of value. As the clocks tick away, we might start taking more time with each task, when we can, to give it more love and appreciation. Find more ways to take our time, and to remember that it is oaky to slow down.

Hope you have a wonderfully day, and remember, all will be okay, even if it is slowed down.

Much love.
