Stop trying to keep up with others
When I was younger for a time chased after the things of life. I thought that was what you were supposed to do, but I was wrong.
It took me a long time to learn that everyone is on a different path. If you keep chasing after the things or the life you think you’re supposed to have just because it seems everyone else does, you’ll lose yourself and not even know what you’re chasing or why you are chasing.
I learned over time that some things just need time to breathe and grow and it does not matter how slowly you go as long as you continue to breathe, grow and stop to smell the flowers.
Stop and smell the flowers does not mean giving up on your dreams, or to move away from the path you are on in life. Stop and smell the flowers means to live in the moment, just for a while. Take in your surroundings, watch the dragonfly drift by as if floating on a bubble. Look at the people around you with new eyes, see the world as a four-year-old does, everything is interesting and new. We become jaded about the beauty and wonder of life as we age. Stop and smell the flowers and look at life with new wonder and awe.
