Just stop for awhile take in a few deep breath, enjoy the fresh air and the wondeful scenic around you. And do some wondering about these thoughts:-
Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?
You better slow down.
Don't dance so fast
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Do you run through each day
On the fly?
When you ask How are you?
Do you hear the reply?
When the day is done
Do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?
You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Ever told your child,
We'll do it tomorrow?
And in your haste,
Not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call and say,"Hi"
You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day,
It is like an unopened gift....
Thrown away.
Life is not a race.
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over.

I like the poem - you must be must be more sentimental than sassy.
I feel bad everytime I put my kids aside for work (but on the other hand, I would feel bad if they had no shoes either. sigh).
This past weekend was a four day weekend for me and I enjoyed the time with my family. It is always hard for me to go back to work (in another city) because I miss my kids and seeing them grow up. I am addicted to my job, my pay, my benefits.
Can we? Can we do the slow dance here in Singapore? Hmmm... we are going so fast dat we need to catch up with the rentak lagu techno gitu...Loike the poem or was it a song? :)
Oh i did enjoyed every seconds of my life motionless...
but only in my dreams.
ahh...yes. i've developed the habit of slowing down and enjoying the moments.
I can use a slow dance every so often. For the next two months, every day is a like a race.
I love it!
I try to be slow paced,but cant be done at the moment.At least i have my time at night,infront of my laptop,forgetting the time,the world is mine,no skeds to think about.though,lacking of sleep :D
hello sassy!
nice poem and message! Indeed we should be able to know when to take things slow and have some time to step back and smell the flowers. Time can never be taken back...
Time doesn't slow down but we can...
What's the rush really?
Its easier said than done lah...
Anyway, we will Rest In Peace one day eventually. If you can go slower than that!
Just dance on a comfortable pace... slower/faster doesn't means that its better/worst. Dance have to be graceful and up beat!
I've always enjoyed taking things slow. They make me appreciate life more :)
Agt...u r asking abt my updates rite...Please come visit my blog...there is somthing for you...
In fast paced singapore, Taking time for nature and watching attentively of things around and just be lazy for a change in a day is pleasure.
Oh just love it! I sometimes enjoying taking my time slow, it makes me relax and appreciate more of my time.
i totally agree with rey! especially with Great Singapore Sale on hand, it's a challenge to be slow and not be swayed with the shopping craze!
