Slow down

"The soul requires duration of time -- rich, thick, deep, velvety time -- and it thrives on rhythm. Soul can’t be hurried or harried .... We may go through many events in the day and experience nothing because the soul has not had the opportunity to feel them from many different points of view."

-- Robert Sardello

Soul cannot exist when our connections in life remain superficial. An experience of soul requires that we take time to be fully present to the details of our lives.

Explore what happens when you take the time to STOP and PAY ATTENTION. When we choose to slow down and really experience the qualities of our lives, we get a whole new perspective on what living’s all about.

"We must not allow the clock and the calendar to blind us to the fact that each moment of life is a miracle and mystery."

-- H. G. Wells

"The well of Providence is deep. It’s the buckets we bring to it that are small."

-- Mary Webb

The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin' Groovy)
Simon & Garfunkel

Slow down, you move too fast
You've got to make the morning last
Just kickin' down the cobble stones
Looking for fun and feelin' groovy!
(La,la,la,la,la,la, feelin' groovy)

Hello, lamp post, whatcha knowing?
I've come to watch your flowers growing
Ain't ya got no rhymes for me?
Doot-in' doo-doo, feelin' groovy!
(La,la,la,la,la,la, feelin' groovy)

Got no deeds to do, no promises to keep
I'm dappled and drowsy and ready to sleep
Let the morning time drop all its petals on me
Life, I love you, all is groovy!
(La,la,la,la,la,la, feelin' groovy)
(La,la,la,la,la,la, feelin' groovy)

We had a term of endearment for our classmates in high school when they were going much too fast and having a clumsy day. That term was Bumbledwarf!

Many years later as a wife and mother, I was having myself a Bumbledwarf day. I was trying to get supper ready and nothing was going right. I was standing at the stove on the verge of tears. Suddenly My Little Voice said "Be deliberate. Do things on purpose with purpose." Goosebumps.

I slowed down and focused and followed the advice. Things went much better after that.

Later I was doing some lexigram spirals. I real-eyes-d that DELIBERATE contains the word LIBERATED. Staying in the Eternal Now liberates us so we can be a S-Elf instead of a Bumbledwarf! *grin*
