One day I stopped being in a hurry...

I do not remember exactly, I think I was tired, very tired... a lot of projects, very high speed job, when you used to be in this mode - never stop, faster & faster. Yes, I know, it’s the rhythm of modern world, we try to do more, as much as possible actually. But where is the value? If the quality of what you do is higher? Or the quality of the life? I do not complain, do not take it wrong. Sometimes it’s really important to be in a hurry, but all the time? Seriously?

I talked to my very good friend and colleague, she told that sometimes life seems to be like speedy movie - you see the pictures on the screen, but do not get a damn what’s going on and what all this means. Maybe it will help me to become successful faster, but it will not make me happy. At all. I’m not disappointed, no way. But I want to SEE more. I want to see details. In each and every moment. Details are very important.

As Alan Milne wrote “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That’s why we call it The Present”.

I decided to stop worry that I cannot do many things at the same time. It was easy. You decide - that you will not. Yes, probably I will not meet somebody's expectations, but at the certain age it's not so scary to become a person "out of the box". We have friends, we have people who takes care of us. Speedy we are or not - they do not care. I think it's a life time balance. When you can choose what is really important and where you can afford and just stop by. Wisdom? Maybe. I hope I'm becoming wiser.

In any case, I've read this somewhere - "If you're always racing to the next moment, what happens to the one you're in?"
