some days start slow
time to sit and ponder
to think and assess
to savor a cup of tea
and appreciate the scent of a flower
time to breathe
quiet
because
other days start out rushed
flying out of bed
with the first alarm bell
hurrying, stumbling
knowing you’ve forgotten something
no time no time no time
noise
because
days have their seasons
and months do too
sometimes many months, even years
i am currently in the rush season
where days slip by with hardly a chance
to catch my breath
no real deadline, yet feeling the pressure
to move beyond this renovation stage
and relax into our new home
i do sneak in several slow days, here and there
(while my husband works on at the pink house)
i’d go bananas otherwise
so i am taking one right now
to gather my thoughts
write this blog post
plan a decent dinner
catch up on to-do lists
design-in-my-mind the next room
to recharge
because
how about you?
slow days or rushed?
