Iran, Islamic Republic Of

November 1, 2008

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 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 timeTo call and say “hi”

You 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’s over…      ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I just loved this poem once I read it! How about you? How does it make you feel?

Yeah, you've comprehended it well.

Of course life needs fast and quick activities and movements, but every activity can support and bear an inside calmness, which is much bigger than the rush.

wow. That's really great - I mean something different because lately I've heard e.g. in TV and on many websites opinions that main goal is : always be in rush. It's kind of stressful. And it's nice to see something like this. It's very helpful from time to time to just ... slow down :)
