GOING NOWHERE SLOWLY!
Your proud life in the world can never be an isolated carefree standalone.
They say, no man is an Islander. Life needs life in order to keep the heart
beating.
Our lives are self evident and proof
beyond any science; that our hearts are the grid which sustains our survival as
humans. So zestful I wanna catch the tail I don’t have!
Going nowhere slowly is not just an empty sloganeering or mythical figure
of speech. Going nowhere slowly is a fact of life.. factoring on matters!.
It’s humanly impossible to be alone
in your own thoughts without framing other people and the world all around.
Whatever must be done and whatever happens takes place in a circle of others.
Going nowhere slowly doesn’t depend on speed needed or the distance
to be traveled. Like our heartbeats, one step a time is all it takes.
O yes, there it is! Tomorrow I need
to leave my house early in order to catch the queue at Home Affairs. Once I get
there .. it’s a going nowhere slowly.
Going nowhere slowly. Did you know that whatever place you go to,
one has to adjust to the order and decorum of that house or business.
Human behaviour is subject to all
kinds of moral ethics. Hello. You can’t just kick-open my door because you
wanted to greet me! What happened to your mannerisms?
Patience is one of the greatest virtues we can’t survive without.
Alone in my thoughts I have already mapped up how to get what I need. But hey,
wait a minute!
The person on the other side of the
counter hasn’t even heard your case!
Going nowhere slowly is a fact of life. We all need each other in
order to keep the world turning. Generosity is a giant tree where we all meet. Random acts
of kindness locked into our souls
You just can’t say, I don’t care what
other people think, I’m going to get what I want by whatever means. Dream on, I
say to you! Nobody will pay attention to you if everything must be done
according to your gospel.
Going nowhere slowly is a lifeline we get from others in order to
help ourselves. We give to give in order to have the same favour returned our
way. Life is life when shared with others.
Some egocentric parents have this bad
proclivity of raising their kids as if their home is all the world they’ll ever
live in. I trained my kids not to accept help from anybody, they’d foolishly
brag.
Going nowhere slowly! How can it be right for your kids to act as
welfare for others and be wrong for them to receive favour from the same? It
takes the whole stretch of mind for one to survive in this world
Going nowhere slowly. Let me jog your
memory, there are eight billion souls in this universe. It’s mind boggling to
even imagine how much patience and virtue you need to live with the rest of us.
Come on man slow down! Life is a marathon! I am going nowhere
slowly. Are you coming with me?
