It is a fact of life these days that everyone seems to be in a rush, speeding from here to there and then back again. People seem to have no time to do the things that are important any more, rush, rush and rush some more. I find it as no surprise that the majority of the population are stressed out and tend to be more aggressive to others, what can you expect of people who lead such hectic lives and deny their bodies the rest it needs.
I have made a decision that when I am not working (I have retired since writing this) I am going to take off my watch and relax, not that I won't be where I am supposed to be when meeting friends and infact as is my normal way of doing things I am usually there earlier than I should be. That is just down to my disciplined side, I have always been punctual even as a schoolboy it is one thing I could never be faulted on, though I do wish I could be as disciplined in other aspects of my life too.
Perhaps we could all do with slowing down a little and looking at what is around us, we could open our eyes to the beauty of Gods creation and marvel at his works. There are those who say there is no God but that is because they are too busy to see Him, creation cries out "Look at me and see the Creator, He is in every aspect of what you can see".
