Gratitude Day 110 - Speedy Carousel

Dear Friends,
Every school of thought professes we should stop and smell the roses, but nobody is letting anybody off!
So, on the Easter weekend, I gave myself permission to jump off!

From healthy home-cooked meals to the stack of paid bills; from vigorous laps in the swimming pool to leisurely readings on my sun-filled balcony - I took advantage of time, savouring every moment and accomplishment.
On Saturday, I went across town to fulfil a promise. On Sunday, I went to the other end of town to have Easter brunch with my new family.

Then, I realised! It’s not really about motivation or indulgences; chores or responsibilities. 
It’s all about meeting one’s own rhythm. 
Then, I wondered! Have I slowed down, or the tempo has picked up, without notice?! 


One way or another, I would like to raise my hand for less "tintamarre," please?! 


I was so very grateful for the 4-day "marching to the beat of my own drum" weekend! 
Now, I can hop back on the speedy carousel - centred (for a while), with a flacon of rose water! 

Have a rosy, racket-free day everyone!
