Time is ticking…
And we can’t go back.

this is a blog by Lien (#). Because it’s such a beautiful blog, I wanted to share it here too.

A simple sentence with such much truth in it. when i look out my window, and i see cars passing by ,drivers who are shouting at each other to drive faster, people who run through the streets with bags , children who are running after their phoning parents , then I think by myself : Why ?

Why are we always in a rush ? Why are we running through life ? Why can’t we stand still for a moment to enjoy the little things ? Why ?

The question is easy to ask , but the answer isn’t.
We are always on the run, to go work , to pick up the kids from school , to go out for a drink , to do the groceries, to find gifts for someone’s birthday and in this rush we don’t see that life is passing by , slowly and quiet.

Life doesn’t ask much from us , on the other hand , it gives a lot. It gives us the opportunity to make career , to have a family , to feel love. It shows us the beauty of nature , of earth , of people. And most of all if shows us how happy we can be with the little things , like a purple red sunset , or a field covered with Daisies , the smell of fresh mowed grass or a friendly smile from people you don’t know or the shop-assistant who’s asking how you are doing today.

Because we run , we miss all those simple gestures. We don’t live our life , we just run through it and at some point , it gains us and then we realize how valuable and short it is.

So , try to stop once in a while , just to look and see the small things around you and I’m sure you will continuing your journey with a smile, realizing it can wait for moment.
