When
you are a child you wish every day to be a grown-up. You spend infinite amounts
of time playing games which require you to act like a grown-up, with an adult
life and an adult profession. Everything you are presented with is all aimed
towards growing up and what kind of life you are going to create for yourself.
Once you reach your twenties and the pretending is over you spend your time
worrying about whether or not you are filling your role adequately. Suddenly
you are speeding through your twenties racing to achieve the things you think
you have to before the next big milestone. The quote below is one which
appeared to me today and it really spoke to me.
Why
are we all rushing to get to the next level?
Who are we trying to please?
What
are we trying to prove?
Maybe we should all follow this advice and sit back and
enjoy life. Why rush through and see the amazing world around us as nothing
more than a blur?
We should slow down and take in the view, savour the
experiences, feel what it is to live life to the absolute full.
