Rush

We don't really take time to "smell the roses". Often times we're in such a rush, with work, or events, or just everyday life, we can't stop and look around us. I did stop just yesterday, and the wife and I just enjoyed a 15-30 minute time to listen to the frogs and crickets, to feel the wind in our hair, to love each other. Afterwards we had to step back into reality, but still, it was nice to just be something other than a human consumption machine. To sit and listen and notice that we were not necessarily the most important thing is good... If you know what I mean.
