It’s gray and rainy, though not raining right at this minute. My brain is already on The Next Thing, when I need it here, in the present, right now.
Isn’t that always the way.
Lists running through our heads, a nondescript voice telling us to hurry up. However quickly we go, it’s not quickly enough, The Next Thing is always waiting.
Always.
But that’s also the thing. It’s still there, whether you speed through the current thing or not so why not make it wait for you? Let it practice its patience.
There’s no real reason to rush through everything just because there’s something else beyond it. There will always be something else.
Always.
So take a deep breath, maybe the first deep breath you’ve taken all day, take a nice sip of whatever beverage you have, or grab one if you don’t have one at the ready, and let’s just enjoy this moment together.
Before The Next Thing.
