Why are we in a hurry?

I was reading this morning and challenged by the authors words...He said...”Life is meant to be a vibrant, deeply felt, growing mosaic of long, meaningful moments.”

My first thought was....hahaha! Not my life! My life is filled with paint in all the wrong places! You feel me?

But as those words got beyond my surface to my core, I was saddened and felt guilty.

I spend every weekend “hurrying” my kids every where. I spend every weekend worried about the week ahead. I spend every weekend half way present for my family, and it’s not fair.

I am realizing this morning that I need to take my own advice that I give to other people. I need to slow down! I need to enjoy the moment. One day I’ll look back and miss these times.

Consider this challenge...
Be as present at home this week as you are at work.

And know this is for me. Maybe you are already awesome at this...well, I suck at it.

My family deserves the best of me. And far too often, I give the best to complete strangers while giving my family the scraps of what’s left over. No more!

Today will be different! If this made an impact on you, please share it with someone else. :)
