“It’s not about having time, it’s about taking time. “

I heard this quote today at a lecture and I really enjoyed the concept behind it.

Quite too often, we get swept away into our routines. Whether our schedules are cluttered with work, with school, with bills, or with house work, we don’t consider scheduling in the small things because our weekly schedules blind us. It makes them seem less important, when actually, they are more important.

When we need to make sure that we are taking time out of our day to take care of ourselves, to check up on friends, and to speak to the people that we love. Things like laundry or doing the dishes, can wait, because at the end of the day, your well being is more important than having a clean home.

Life happens so fast, it’d be a shame to miss it.
