Running, pushing and juggling with work
We are walking on the fast lane
Noise, pollution and maddening crowds
Jumping into crowded buses and trains
Rushing through life, at times we loose our sanity
It’s time to take a break and look into our souls in silence
A life of gratitude and bonds with loved ones
This is the key to live a life of balance
Take each day as it comes
Take time to enjoy the beauty of flowers, and the melody of song
Absorb every moment and everything that nature has bestowed on us
cause this is where we belong
This is in response to write tribe prompt

Diana's Musings 
To live 100% percent in every moment, every breath. Ahh, that is a luxury these days.
Yes Bhavya times have changed, yet sometimes it feels good to slow down and enjoy the moment.
They say, how we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives… the key is to live and love the moment!
That’s well said Shilpa. At times we need to stop and value the present moment.
beautiful. In the hum-drum of competitive life, we have nice forgotten to enjoy every lil but beautiful moment of life..like sipping an inexpensive glass of tea at the tea stall.
Thanks for the comment Vishal…That’s true ! Happiness lies in the simple and finer aspects of life.
Living in the present without worrying about the past or future is true living. We need to try doing it and see how happy we would be.
We normally spoil our present by thinking about the past or future.I think it’s not too hard if we practice it.That’s great piece of advice Sulekha.
HI Diana – you’re right, we do need to slow down and smell the roses! To do this, we have to consciously make time for the small things and big things we value in life. When I was acting on auto-pilot, a lot of things were rushed and fast-paced. I’ve made an attempt to slow it down and like being able to enjoy the ‘now’ more.
That’s a nice piece of advice Vishnu. Finding and making time for the things we value the most is important. Good to know that you’ve made a change for the better. Thank you so much for the visit and the lovely comment.
This is how we all should think, the recent tragedies that have struck our country should force us to contemplate on such things. A lovely thought Diana loved the poetry 🙂
