SLOW DOWN

• Life is not a race. It is a journey.
• Getting someplace first, before anyone else, has very little real and lasting meaning. Seek instead to encourage others to come along, and we'll find the journey much more fulfilling.
• When we hurry through each moment, we miss out on the richness that could be ours.
• Take the time to live, to experience where we are, rather than being so obsessed with getting to the next checkpoint.
• When we stop demanding to have it all now, we'll discover that we have plenty already.
• Learn to experience joy where we are, and we'll experience it in abundance.
• Yes, it can be wonderfully exhilarating when life is moving quickly. But do not move so quickly that speed becomes our only experience, for there is so much more to enjoy.
• The terrain of life is filled with wonderful and astounding detail. Slow down and take in its richness.
