Do you ever have those moments where you are so wrapped up in what is going on or what you have to get done, that you miss out. You miss the important things in life.
For example:
Tonight I was running around doing laundry, cooking, trying to get some paper work in order for school, e-mailing some instructors and the whole time I was doing all of this my mind was wandering planning out my tomorrow. And then all of a sudden I was like crap I have to get some stuff to make my portion of the work pot luck tomorrow. I ran out of the house to my car and when I sat down in my car ready to focus on driving to the grocery store, I was like WOW it is raining!! At that moment I stopped and I wanted to kick myself in the butt...I was too busy worrying, too busy panicing, too busy busying myself..yes with things that need to get done but I was so wrapped up in them I was missing something..something that I love! I was so busy I didnt even realize it was raining, I didnt even process that it was raining while I was running to my car, my mind was too focused at that point on something that doesnt even matter. I love the rain, I love the smell of it, I love the sound of it (I might not have the same love for it if it were to rain everyday but i do love it).
It sucks when you make yourself so busy with stuff that you miss out on the things that matter in life: The beauty, the things that are happening, the people that matter..Just saying!
Maybe it is time to slow down.
