Benefits of s l o w

In general I like it fast.

I move fast and never stop. A lot can be accomplished in a day if you set goals, keep a list, and stay on pace!

However, when I jog, I  s l o w  it way down.

This happens not necessarily by my choice, I just can't go fast now, and never have had that capability.

I think it is the universe's way of making me "slow down and smell the roses".



Benefits of  s l o w  are endless!
*You hear and see the chickadees, cardinals, ducks.
*See and hear the river rippling as you pass over the bridge.
*Salute all the flags a flying, patriotic and decorative. 
*Plan out your day, week, life!
*Watch the black cat sitting in its front window, basking in the sun.
*Enjoy the usually irritating squirrels chasing each other up trees in the barber shop pole twirly pattern.
*Find an occasional piece of change and maybe even a dollar!
*Check out yards and gardens, in all seasons.
*Have just a little time all to yourself to do nothing but whatever your brain chooses.

So,  s l o w  down and enjoy. Look around and appreciate!

I am a Putnamaniac because I appreciate the benefits of   s l o w, especially in this beautiful place!
