| FAST TIMES |
|
I'm amazed that I'm living in such fast times.
I've noticed people talk fast, walk fast, eat fast,
and we hurry during our lunch break to include a
stop to pay bills, shop, and grab a bite to eat.
We go to a drive-up window and expect a hot
sandwich to be handed out the window within a
minute's time. Many people buy frozen microwave
dinners that can be zapped quickly at mealtime.
We make reservations ahead of time so there will
be no wait when we arrive at the restaurant. We
are in a hurry, driving our cars over the speed
limit to get someplace so we'll have more
time once we arrive at our destination. I'm
ready for the pace to slow down. Talk slower so
others can understand you, walk slower so you
won't bump into others, eat slower so your food
will digest properly, and drive slower to save a
life ...... maybe yours. |
