[5] To Stop and Smell the Roses

So I passed by another quote this week and you lucky people get to hear about it!

So recently I have been running a lot. It started out with just leisurely jogs with a friend but has turned into marathon training because it gave such a high. After one of these run's I decided to post an instagram picture (because why exercise if it's not going to be posted online? Hah, kidding.) and wanted a running quote to go with it. The quote I landed on was "Go fast enough to get there, but slow enough to see." (by Jimmy Buffet)
We all have so much going on in our lives, with school, work, friends, and blog posts, it can get quite overwhelming. Time seems to speed away while we focus on getting things done. What this quote helped me realize is that it's okay for us to focus and move forward with all these things, because they are important, but we need to remember to slow down enough to enjoy the moments that we might sometimes speed past. So remember while your working hard and pushing forward to 'stop and smell the roses' per say, and to have fun while doing it.
