One Week

What would you do if you had one hour, one week, one month? Would you run? Would you stay? Would you scream at God and beg for answers as to why? Or, would you live? I like to think I would live. I would stay. I would love with everything left in me.

Sometimes there are questions put out in the universe that makes everything slow down, like one of those hi-speed action packed movies that all of the sudden cut the timing to a quarter of what it was to show the audience the water droplets spraying out from tires skidding on the surface, or the disturbance of air as a knife slices through space.

Sometimes I wish that life would slow down--so that I could focus on the small moments. So I could see the water droplets and disturbed air.  Sometimes I get lost in the shuffle of existence. The schedules, the appointments, the to-do lists... Sometimes I look at back at my life and think of everything I haven't done yet. What a grand adventure it would be to achieve, or try to, everything you want to do. No, I'm not talking about a bucket list per-say. I am talking about living life in the moment... right now. Slowing down time to observe the molecules of life.

I think I am going to start today... Want to try it with me? Try to notice the world around you. Before you speak... listen. Before you act... watch. I want you to try to FEEL the moments... I'm not saying sit back and let life pass slowly by. I am talking about opening yourself up... and becoming a part of the world around you.

Maybe I'm too philosophical today. Who knows? The brownies did taste a little funny.

LOL... I am kidding... I don't eat brownies. ;)
