TIME....
Here it is spiraling to the end of MAY. I was in a hurry (why??) to do some cleaning up stairs. My energy waned,so many times up and down the steps, cardio work out. I needed some coffee...again! 

So thought I take a break..as the word...TIME... kept sticking in my head, going around and around...and thinking of what I seen in a few stores, yesterday... Decor for the 4 th of July...ALREADY!!! SIGH

Why??? must we always be in a hurry? for the next day, the next holiday, the next season, the next whatever! We are not enjoying NOW... We wanted Spring...we wanted to plant, we wanted to see green grass, we wanted to feel Mother Nature, wake slowly in our neck of the woods. so why are we not enjoying it? WHY are we letting "others" throw us into being in such a hurry to move on? 

NO! I did not look at any of the "July stuff" (rolling my eyes here) I am still in Spring! in week? or two? I will slowly lean a bit into Summer, with the Summer Solstice, in June. Not going to rush...WHY hurry my life away sooner???  

So... my thoughts mulling around about TIME...Take one day at a time. Slow down, stuck in traffic? yes, it a pain when you can think of many things you need to do or places you need to be at. But maybe this the time to put in a cd, listen to some calming music, or some thing from your teens...and just BREATHE...relax a bit. Enjoy the memories, enjoy breathing...Being frustrated, angry will not help your day, and you are wasting some time to just relax a bit, and  go down memory lane...

We need to slow down, no matter your age. We need time to unwind, each day... Stop being in a hurry. Stop stressing about the time. To get this done and that done! We multitask way too much! Missing little moments, missing our kids do and say things silly or cute, missing Mother Nature's beauty change. When was the last time you put your bare feet in the SPRING grass wiggled your toes and just grounded?? sipped on some sweet tea?? watched the squirrels? birds? the wind in the trees..or your cat or dog  rolling around in the grass, all stretched out? Even they know it is a good thing...

I know in our hectic work schedule, kids schedules (and many are way to busy, with little time to be out in Nature and just unwind, and  be a kid! Do you remember what you did as a kid? just for fun, no time limit, no hurry? ) 

With all the responsibilities we have, take on...we need to realize this is not good for us..We need TIME to unwind, breathe, slow down, enjoy the moments in the making NOW!

So lets not let "others" push us to hurry so much, Not rush through the holidays, that not even here yet, for the next one. We may plan to unwind, relax (and we do not) on a holiday and lets think of those holidays and the significance behind them. Slow down... Deadlines will come and go, things won't get done as planned, We never feel their is enough time! So make/take the time to just enjoy the moments each day.  LOOK for the little things.  TIME moves fast!
