Have you ever been in traffic and have some crazy person or maybe you were the one that was peeling tires and driving fast and ridiculous to get in front of everyone? You then get down the road at the speed limit to see the same car in front of you? What happened? They could go nowhere and just had to move at the pace of the traffic. They just went nowhere fast. I can’t tell you how many times I would think this is where you are after taking off like a mad rabbit?
I was thinking life is like that sometimes we move at the speed of light but go nowhere and go nowhere really fast. Why can’t we be like nature, day must follow night and you can’t speed up how this is done. It’s just the way it is. The thing is many persons can’t see that, they just think it’s best to move through life rapidly. Things must go really fast. In my mind sometimes we have to stop and smell the roses. It’s important to do nothing just to allow the mind and body to relax and get some down time. Maybe that’s just me.
What I have realized is that moving that fast sometimes have us going on empty. We can’t run on fumes. I’ve tried and it’s hard. The body needs to slow down and relax. I know some won’t agree with me as they will say they can go for ten or more hours per day, six or seven days a week and they will be fine. One day that body will stop and let you know it’s not being treated right. I have seen it happen to a number of persons and it has happened to me. When the body says stop and sit down, I’m tired. We should do just that, stop and sit down. We are after all humans beings not machines.
While writing I keep seeing the tortoise and the hare in my mind. Yes my imagination kicked in and I was seeing the animals in my minds eye 😁. Do we keep moving like the hare going nowhere fast or like the tortoise slow and sure. They will both get there but I guess it just depends on what rate you would want to get there. Is it faster being better or slow and steady wins the race? Pushing fast very often get us in crashes and accidents. I’m not saying it won’t happen when we go slow but it’s less likely, especially when we look out for others as well as ourselves.
