"In Praise of Slowness"

Take the time to enjoy the beauty that surrounds your world



There is a book written by Carl Honore', entitled, "In Praise of Slowness". On the inside jacket cover one reads the following:

"Living on the edge of exhaustion, we are constantly reminded by our bodies and minds that the pace of life is spinning out of control. ...Why are we always in a rush?"


Here is an excerpt from a page within:


"The sense that something is missing from our lives underpins the global yearning for Slowness...The great benefit of slowing down is reclaiming the time and tranquility to make meaningful connections--with people, with culture, with work, with nature , with our own bodies and minds. Some call that living better. Others would describe it as spiritual."
