Slow Motion

Slow Motion

Okay, so I have to say this… Today, erm, this morning seems to be going in Slow Motion.  The minutes feel like hours and the hours feel like days.  Nothing I attempt from a technological standpoint has been successful and the icing on the cake is a runny nose.  All-in-all things have been less than stellar.  (See previous post)

However, I’m going to look at the relaxed pace and inability to connect through the internet and various forms of messaging as a blessing.  You see… it seems as if the more ways I have to remain in touch in real-time; the more I wear myself down.  My aim is always to help others in any way I can, and in doing so I tend to forget to take care of myself.  Whelp, looks like HE has the jump on me today! 

I’m getting the sure-fire sign and message that I need to slow down. 

My progress in my journey has had moments of stagnation, moments of warped jumps ahead, moments of clarity and moments of haze… However, through it all I choose to see the blessings in each moment.  Of course this is easy to state because we all know that hindsight is 20/20.  Yet in moments such as this, in which I’m forced to slow down and reflect on my experiences up to this very moment; I can only be grateful for HIS favor on my life.

So although I may not like that I can’t leapfrog my way to the next proverbial mile marker… I will accept HIS pace on my life and progress and go with the flow.  It’s not easy for a recovering control addict, but it is necessary.  

*Besides, I have some laundry, cooking, cleaning, shopping and short stories to write.  (No biggie)  :o)

Remember, even a match seems to burn in slow motion until you are actually holding it.
