Our program isn’t working. We are misunderstood. Nothing’s going well at work. We just can’t see it through. Why doesn’t someone help us?
Impatience! We become fretful and blame others for our shortcomings.
Impatience! We lose touch with the tempo of life and our own particular rhythm.
Impatience! We are convinced our addiction will never stop tormenting us.
Let’s slow down and get back in touch with life’s movement. We know that all things have their season and their motion and their end. It may feel like winter, but spring will come and then summer. Nothing remains static; everything changes and grows. There is a pattern to all life—including ours—if we are patient enough to discern it.
I need to slow down to get in touch with the rhythms of my life and of life outside me.
