Dear Nostr, As the days get shorter I've been trying my best to decelerate, to reduce, to cherish the simple things. Food. Water. Fire. Family. Health. We take health for granted, until the hospital visit that rips our world apart. We take life for granted, until tragedy strikes and death is at our doorstep. "A healthy man has many wishes, a sick man only one." But we still have today. The present. A gift.

Deceleration is something we should practice more often. Most of us are taught to keep our foot on the gas pedal, but not how to slow down and breathe.

I hope that nothing in this direction happenend to anyone dear to you. But you're absolutely right! I recently heard Anthony De Mello saying: "If you don't have a tooth ache, you're probably not even aware that you have a tooth."

Wonderfully wise words @Gigi! Living each day like our last helps slow down, experience gratitude, and cherish our many blessings. Very well said ahead of Thanksgiving!
