Do you think you are one of them? I sure am that way sometimes...Running after the next train, speeding to cross the junction before the signal turns red and even hurrying through breakfast so I could start the day! We are often in so much of a hurry to 'get there' that we forget the most interesting part--'getting there', the journey.
Let's strike a deal today...every day of the week, we will find one thing to appreciate...one thing to soak in completely...one thing to get lost in... it could be something as simple as the wild flower growing in your building compound, a good cup of coffee, the cool breeze on your way back home from work, one song on your ipod or just a conversation with a friend that puts a smile on your face.
So, what's it gonna be today???
