I always in a hurry. I eat fast, walk fast, think fast. We all go at an unusually fast pace thinking it is not that fast and that everyone is doing it. The line that defined a normal pace, has been changed and with it, our view and actions that follow.
Every once in a while we are jolted back to reality. We clearly see what is right before our very eyes. We are able to slow down, look around and see what we have been missing. It is not always fun and uplifting. Sometimes, many times, we are agitated by being made to stop at the pace we were at. The truth is, we need more to these times and if we are completely honest, we need to make them happen ourselves, not wait for a life experience to get our attention.
I wish everyone could have a Gigi in their lives. We all hover over her, making sure she is drinking her cherry Coke, keeping her cool and walking her to the car. She no longer knows any other pace and we are learning her way. We are lucky to have her...
