Once the car came into being our worlds began to speed up. Then came the speed limits an effort to bring us to a speed of commonsense and safety. Still in spite of this many seem unwilling to utilize these limits that have been place upon them as they usually and loudly proclaim. It is just the same in our daily lives as many are unwilling to return to a slower and more thought out life style. Life styles willing to accept that by going through life as fast as many of us do. We truly are missing out on some of the best things life has to show us. Things we fail to see in our hurry, hurry world. We see the flowers along side of the road but never truly take in their beauty. We sense the freshness in the air in the morning and after a gentle rain but fail to truly breath it in. We hear the birds as they sing their songs but care not to enjoy their brilliant colors. We watch the sky but not for the shapes in the clouds but only to see if there is a storm on the horizon and then we quickly move on ignoring the rest of the world unless it steps into our paths much as the speed limit signs do along the highway. It is only then with those irritating reminders that we slow down for a little while but truly we still do not see, and hear what we should. So it is that I say slow down and live life in such a fashion that you learn once more of the beauties that life has to offer should you take the time to look for them and then enjoy them. Life can be just as they are simple if you are willing to let be as such.
