Slow, slower, slowest

Is often just perfect. The slow-cooked meal. The relaxed endless tumbling obliques conversation. The amble rather than a hike. The new book a few pages at a time. The slow r e a c h i n g stretches prior to just one or two yoga moves. The pen to paper for those better-late-than-never cards. The slowest of cuddles on the sofa.  Coffee without rushed pressed buttons and a bean that needs TLC.

There’s a time for fast, responsive and agile.

There’s definitely a time for slow, slower, slowest.
