Time to Slow Down

MARCH 4, 2023 // love note from anjie

time to slow down

I received a big message from the universe this week. I was rushing, running to catch a bus. I tripped on a part of the sidewalk and fell on my face. There was a lot of blood, and a lot of stitches. If you know me personally, I'm a super busy person, often taking on too much. I'm so grateful that it wasn't as bad as it could have been. However, this was a firm warning that I need to slow down.

How can we do one thing at a time with joy, mindfulness, and presence. Why are we in such a hurry?
