Slowing down,
this morning,
I found a pot of gold...
...at the end of the not rainbow.
But because the rainbow wasn't around, I couldn't reach the gold.
So, instead, I admired it from a distance.
Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away....
...as I was chilling on the river beach, all by myself.
The water was still almost too cold to swim in but I used my will power and managed to float into it for about 5 minutes.
Afterwards, I dried myself in the sun and shadow, on the other side of the river, chilling some more.
*A bit later, I picked up my niece and nephew from the schoolbus, played with them and enjoyed seeing them play in and near the water (playing the adult, again).
We chilled some more, before walking home and chilling even more, before bed.*
Or, to rephrase the latter, they chilled and I did the cooking, cleaning up, etc. ;^)
By the way, I am not on a holiday. It isn't weekend. No, I am actively countering the busy/iness of most people, making conscious choices to do less and I am not willing to wait for that till my retirement, whatever that means
( to stop living? ).
This is why I embrace cryptocurrency (especially Hive and Bitcoin ), blogging and being my own boss.
Time is the most important thing that we have and I prefer to slow (it) down over speeding it up, enjoying nature and being outdoors as much as I can.
Sending love✨
