Slow walk

I went out for a walk with my dog. It felt great. Wanted to share a pic. Does it look cold? Well its 30 degrees. I have a lot on my mind. But I realize I need to wait on these things. I’m not good at waiting. I’m deliberately slowing myself down, no rushing to get to the next moment the now is everything; everything in the now is how it should be or it wouldn’t be.

What a beautiful relaxing pic. I think it's great our dogs force us to enjoy such moments.

I bet the air smells fresh. It looks so peaceful and relaxing. Bet your puppy enjoyed it as well!

Waiting is hard i understand but in a way it’s good imo. If we got everything we wanted all at once It could be overwhelming and would we really appreciate it? Slow still gets the job done. 😊 Happy day to you!

You are right, remember the story of the tortoise and the hare, tortoise won the race.

Over twenty years ago, I learnt to live in the moment, it is wonderful, so freeing, that is all I do is concentrate on the moment, like I am just now.

Thank you for the photo, just think those bare trees, will take their time and slowly bud out, then bring forth their leaves in their time in nature.

I wish you well, have a lovely Valentine Day, give your dog a hug for me, sending love, patience, and big hugs.....Sprinkle 1.....

Thank you for your reply, I hope I helped you, I find going slow I tend not to make mistakes. I remember when I was a child, my Mother used to tell my brother and I, "Don't run, then is when you can fall" She was right. Hope you are having a lovely day......Sending love & hugs.....Sprinkle 1....

You are right. What if thoughts ,drive you nuts. Lovely pictures. Beautiful white tree barks.

Yeah, right?! What ifs and going over something we can change ...

in reply toStarrlight

That is amazing how you have re interpreted the past and realized you can't change it but you are moving on. Think people who talk about you in front of you as if you weren't there should be avoided. Those relatives who are 2 faced can be nasty splitting up the family. Looking forward to Spring .

It's very pretty. I saw something similar to that on the way to my school.

Starr,

We really need to learn patience. Otherwise we could jump to conclusions or worse.

Seriously, patience pays off. Stay focused on your goals :)
