fast living

My great Grandma passed away last week. 




















Life is a vapor...here today, gone tomorrow. 
It is good to be reminded of this. 















My great Aunt Amy shared some wisdom as we sat on the couch near my great grandmother’s coffin.
 I had just observed the rising death rate of people in the 20th century.
Her response spoke volumes…
“They live too fast”

“How do you live slower?” I asked.
“Well... You enjoy what you have…
You work hard, a
nd you don’t get excited about things that aren’t exciting…
I laughed and hugged her tight. 

In order to live to our fullest-
We must tune our hearts to a different beat, 
match our stride to a different march.  

Who cares how it looks to the world...
It's His eyes we want to capture.
