Breathe.

Life moves fast,

always something to do,

somewhere to be,

work work work

go go go

if you don’t look ahead

you will be left behind.

But what about the present?

The birds don’t fly all day,

They sit and sing for a while.

A fluttering leaf does not rush

To fall from it’s tree.

Life moves fast

but beauty is in the present.

Take a moment to look around and just

Breathe.
