Unhurrying

“Simplicity is ultimately a matter of focus.”― Ann Voskamp, One Thousand Gifts: A Dare to Live Fully Right Where You Are

“Being in a hurry. Getting to the next thing without fully entering the thing in front of me. I cannot think of a single advantage I’ve ever gained from being in a hurry. But a thousand broken and missed things, tens of thousands, lie in the wake of all the rushing…. Through all that haste I thought I was making up time. It turns out I was throwing it away.”― Ann Voskamp, One Thousand Gifts: A Dare to Live Fully Right Where You Are

In slowing
Fullness of moments, days
In attention
Beauty in the backdrop comes to the forefront
In unknowing
Space opens to learn, relearn, grow
In reflection
Gratitude expands
In awe
Wonder and joy show up
In presence
Abundance overflowing

“Life is so urgent it necessitates living slow.”― Ann Voskamp
