Welcome my friends. I’m tweaking my weekly journey with my healthier living. It’s a step in the right direction for sure. I hope you come along for the ride. Instead of day-to-day comments, I’m going to post something from my personal journal to share. Hope you enjoy. Remember all of us go down this path and we are all in it together ❤
Week of 06/17-06/23/2018 – Week 24
“Dear Journal – “When did life become a hurry? Everyone seems to be in such a rush. People flying down the road – they have to be first. The same person that was behind you has to go around you to be in front. People are rushing through the stores cutting in front of you and grabbing things. People constantly talking on their cell phones. Life needs to slow down. People need to slow down. What happened to sitting on the deck just breathing and relaxing? People are constantly multi-tasking. I think this week I will slow a bit. Relax. Sit and enjoy dinner with the family. Talk. Enjoy just being together and not rushing.”
Miles walked: 5.27
TOTAL 2018 Miles: 166.01
TOTAL 2017 Miles: 541.06
❤ small goals turn into big accomplishments ❤

that’s what I ask me too… when life became a race and why no one has a word or a look for another one… like ants all running around and miss the best moments and the small things…

Exactly. SLOW DOWN. Life is way too fast as it is. Enjoy some of it. We never know when our time is up – enjoy what you have for sure ❤

You are so right, I have noticed this same in traffic. Speed limits mean nothing, everybody is just driving like crazys. That rush makes people nervous and they will rush more and more,like they have only one day left in this life.

YES! I just have to shake my head when I drive home from work at times. People get behind me and think I’m going to slow (because WOW I’m doing the speed limit). So they have to go around me to get wherever first and then we both meet up at the next light. Really? Was it worth it using extra gas, energy and stress to get in front of me?

Just like here, I used to smile in the next lights seeing those cars there.

YES! I just want to get their attention and stick my tongue at them like we made it here at the same time huh? I know juvenile but sometimes people bring it out in me – LOL

I agree with you. Life is so much better when one slows down to enjoy the ‘sweet’ things in life.

There is this really weird intersection in the city. I was doing something legal but blocking others from going straight for like 30 seconds and the honking and fingers and illegal driving . . . All for 30 seconds. I knew I was in the right but it was stressful and now I am avoiding that spot.

That’s exactly what I mean!! People need to learn about courtesy when driving and having patience! It’s like some people get behind the wheel of a car and completely go berserk!

Well said June! A lot of people I know tell me I ‘need’ a cellphone…..I think it is a rubbish idea. When I am out, I’m out…PERIOD! And most people I go with have a cell phone.
And I AGREE; just sitting & relaxing & slowing down is wonderful. Now to convince this crazy world to unwind……lol…..

Exactly! I think sometimes we are too convenient for people in the ways of a phone call. Sometimes you just want to reflect back to the day and have peace.
