Don't go so fast, wait for yourself

Sometimes we also need to slow down the pace of life and feel the wonderful moments in life.

In this era of rapid development, we often forget to stop and feel the beauty of life at our busy pace.

Walk slowly to get closer to happiness.

We are in a fast-paced social environment, often we will be overwhelmed, then we need to properly slow down the pace of life, and feel the beauty of life, such as taking some time to read a book, catch up on a drama, make a meal, a cup of coffee, quietly for a while.

Everyone wants a different life, but sometimes a busy life can make you forget the meaning of your life. Life is full of all kinds of emotions, there are happy, painful, fearful, surprising and so on, so we have to do is to remember those happy times, forget those painful moments, with a good mind to face our own life, appropriate to slow themselves down, take a vacation, to decompress themselves.

Life is because you can think calmly, it will become more simple and wise, we have to learn to give ourselves a vacation, adjust our mindset, and learn to cherish the time of the moment.

What can control our emotions is never beautiful clothes or fine food, but a good and healthy mind. How long has it been since you took a moment to read a book you wanted to read, make a glass of your favorite iced Americano, take your pet dog on a trip, listen to some of your idol's songs, and enjoy a slow time?

Life will always set some shackles to itself to set some restrictions, it will lead us to be incredibly eager to be free, eager to let go of all the pressure, and let ourselves relax. But when you give yourself freedom, you will not go to enjoy the freedom, still living a busy life, refused to stop to enjoy you may wish to reduce some useless social, less unnecessary socializing, with the time to enjoy life.

I have a friend, who is a workaholic, he thinks his life should be for work and struggle, he did not allow himself to go out and play with children when he was in school, he forced himself to keep the state of learning, has been learning, after graduation, he forced himself to work all the time, do not give themselves a little leisure time, such a state lasted a long time until he fell ill, he has been making He kept himself in this long-term high-pressure environment, trapping himself in this life, and then he became unusually depressed because he could not continue to work, he felt that his life was meaningless, without any goals, without any motivation, he felt very unhappy.

When I went to see him he was sitting in front of his hospital bed staring out the window, not even noticing when I came closer. I communicated with him and gave him some advice. I thought he should give his heart a vacation, love to work, and have a goal is certainly a good thing, but also give yourself some time, sometimes do not go too fast, but also wait for your soul.

He then made a change, he accepted the situation he was now suffering from, he was not depressed, but changed his mind and started to enjoy the good things in life, starting with breakfast in the morning, he found that milk was better than coffee, he liked the taste of milk even more. This is when he realized that he usually ignored how many beautiful things due to work and study, so he began to raise flowers and plants, and then when his health was better, he began to arrange an international trip for himself, saying that he wanted to make up for all the beauty of life that he had not experienced in the previous thirty years.

We are not as important as we think, sometimes we must properly slow down and wait for our souls. Feel nature, feel the original beauty of life, this is a kind of freedom, is also a kind of yearning.

People's life is running and busy, doing something uncertain, we have to use our limited life to pursue infinite beauty, do not be too much bound by certain things, do well for yourself, is the best.
