When you are having a rough day or you are just worrying a lot, just slow down and enjoy the good things in life and be thankful for what you have. You can often miss these things if you are just rushing through life. Here is the poem that I have framed in my house that helps to remind me of this.
Slow Dance
Have you ever watched kids on a Mary Go Round
Or listened to the rain slapping on the ground
Ever followed a butterfly’s erratic flight
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night
You’d better slow down
Don’t dance so fast
Time is short
The music won’t last
Do you run through each day on the fly
When you ask “ How are you” do you hear the reply
When the day is done do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores running thru your head
You’d better slow down
Don’t dance so fast
Time is short
The music won’t last
Ever told your child we’ll do it tomorrow
And in your haste not see his sorrow
Ever lost touch , let a good friendship die
Because you never had time to call and say hi
You’d better slow down
Don’t dance so fast
Time is short
The music won’t last
When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there
When you worry and hurry through your day
It is like an unopened gift thrown away
Life is not a race
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over
More or Less,
Less
