Slow down.

I was driving behind this truck the other day. And while it may actually say “do not push,” it read to me as “do not rush” which actually seemed like a very odd message from the universe – made even more odd being delivered on a dump truck.
But not being one to look a cosmic message in the mouth or, frankly, to ignore truck wisdom, I took this as a sign.
To slow down.
Not to rush.
For me, this is quite a challenge and not my nature. But this weekend, I’ve taken a walk, read a book, and decorated cookies. Savoring every minute.
I am not making a resolution or anything crazy like that. But I will try to remember how good it feels and maybe it’ll remind me to do it more often.
Lovely advice. xo
Thanks, Liz!
oh how funny….I read that as rush too….. A good message. Happy New Year!
And happy new year to you, too!
Any time I am stuck behind a slower moving vehicle I choose to see it as an opportunity to slow down, take a deep breath, and find some enjoyment in the day! I think of it as life’s reminder to be in the moment, instead of rushing ahead to where I’ll be 15 minutes from now.
Have a grateful day!

I love that.
