subject: Slow down - don't dance so fast, time is short, the music won't last long [print this page] In the turmoil of fitting in the rat race - we have forgotten how to live. We exist but do we really live? This is my little answer to your question.
Do you notice the kids laughing in the play ground? Have you ever enjoyed the pitter patter of the rain on the tin roof top? If not slow down and listen to the happy sounds around you.
Do you go through each day in a rush? When talking to people near and dear, do you hear their reply? Do you lie awake in your bed worried about the next day's chores?
Slow down don't dance so fast, time is short, the music won't last long.
Ever told a friend or kin "we'll do lunch" in an off hand way and in your haste not seen their sorrow? Ever lost touch, let a great friendship die because you didn't know what to say, or didn't have the time or didn't have forgiveness in your heart? You'd better slow down, don't dance so fast, time is short and the music won't last for ever.
When you rush to get some where, you miss half the fun of getting there. Life then becomes an unopened gift thrown away. Life is not a marathon race. Take it slow. Hear the music before your song is over.
Strive to live your life happy, sad, exciting or down right boring never mind it's yours at least.
Believe in your deepest dreams, since they hold your deepest hopes. If you have faith in yourself then you'll see that what you want is nothing compared to what you are actually destined to have.
Don't allow your pettiness to come in the way of your happiness. If today we stay blind, ungrateful fools, our tomorrows will be the same as our unchanged yesterdays. Even our guardian Angels need a little help so start living from today. Happiness, is that vast open field in front of you all you need to do is run with deference in your feet, love in your soul and above all purity of mind and heart.
Slow down - don't dance so fast, time is short, the music won't last long
