It is true; life seems to have slowed down for us since moving here. But sometimes when you are really moving and satisfied, you find that you are taking really tiny steps. And other times you look down and you realize that you've got someone else's shoes on!
It is not always about speed. Sometimes when i am moving really slow something good creeps up on me from behind and swallows me whole. Other times just getting up a good hard pant and maybe a bit of sweat in the pits is enough to feel all right. There are lots of ways of moving toward something:
Fog moving over the ocean.
Up a down escalator.
Hit by a bus.
Straight.
Without brakes.
Like an Albatross.
On the shoulders of others.
Spinning with eyes wide shut/open.
Holding your breath till stars come dancing.
