Listen To Life

Why are we all in such a hurry?

Have you noticed that all of us seem to be in a hurry all the time?  I’m not exactly sure where we’re all going or if we even know, but we sure are in a hurry all the time, aren’t we?  Maybe we’re all hurrying to make a living.  But don’t you just love it when you get to slow down a little and make a life?

Some friends and I were talking the other day about our favorite foods.  And one friend said, “My favorite food is a slow-cooked pot roast. Now I don’t mean one of those pot roasts that’s cooked in a hurry so it can be served fast.  I mean a pot roast that slow cooks over low heat, basting in its own gravy.  There’s just something about slow-cooking that makes a pot roast taste great.”

There’s just something about slow-cooking life that makes it taste great, too, don’t you think?  So turn down your oven, slow down your pace, and make a pot roast life, not just a served-fast living.  And listen to life today so you can make a positive life, not just a living, in a negative world.
