I would just like to THANK each and every one of you for supporting Balance this year 🙂
It has been a very busy year and we have tried lots of new things, but for the moment we are all enjoying a little rest and relaxation over Christmas, so I’m posting this poem as a reminder to us all on the importance of just pausing….slowing down and taking the time to really enjoy this Christmas……
Just Breathe 🙂
Slow Dance
Have you ever watched kids on a merry-go-round
Or listened to the rain slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly’s erratic flight
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?
You’d better slow down, don’t dance so fast
Time is short, the music won’t last
Do you run through each day on the fly
When you ask “How are you?”, do you hear the reply?
When the day is done, do you lie in bed
With the next hundred chores running through your head?
You’d better slow down, don’t dance so fast
Time is short, the music won’t last
Ever told your child, we’ll do it tomorrow
And in your haste, not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch, let a good friendship die
‘Cause you never had time to call and say “Hi”?
You’d better slow down, don’t dance so fast
Time is short, the music won’t last
When you run so fast to get somewhere,
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through you day,
It is like an unopened gift, thrown away.
Life is not a race, do take it slower
Hear the music, before the song is over
