I rarely think in words at all.
Not doing anything can be worse than doing the wrong thing.
Too many people miss out on real love because they're too busy waiting for the ONE to show up
. . . when you decide you want to be with someone forever, you want forever to start right now.
When men see an attractive woman, they fantasize about sex. When women see an attractive man they fantasize about a relationship.
But I figure you're never too old to learn. That's when you become old, when you stop being fascinated by things, when you stop wanting to learn and explore.
And so taking the long way home through the market I slow my pace down. It doesn't come naturally. My legs are programmed to trot briskly and my arms to pump up and down like pistons, but I force myself to stroll past the stalls and pavement cafes. To enjoy just being somewhere, rather than rushing from somewhere, to somewhere. Inhaling deep lungfuls of air, instead of my usual shallow breaths. I take a moment to just stop and look around me. And smile to myself. For the first time in a long time, I can, quite literally, smell the coffee.
I used to not really like going to the gym when I was playing tournaments because I'd be sore and stiff. But the more you keep doing it, the less soreness you have. And you actually start to enjoy it.
In our lust for measurement, we frequently measure that which we can rather than that which we wish to measure. . . and forget that there is a difference.
The first step in achieving prosperity and wealth is learning to appreciate what you already have.
But basically, I'm trying to write a fun story.
