Day 15 Taking Time

Making a concentrated effort today to take time. Taking time to listen, really listen to the person trying to communicate with me. Taking time to sip my coffee slowly. Taking time to respond carefully to a child. Taking time to chew and really taste my food. Taking the time to get my nails done...and to talk to the woman who is performing this task for me. Taking time to be quiet. I am finding that taking time is, well...it takes time...which requires me to be patient, quiet in my soul and spirit, less rushed, less anxious, less bothered and all around...less. Except for the increased joy.
