Slow Down

As the pace of our lives get faster and faster, and information comes at us from every angle we sometimes forget that there is more to life than work, getting through the backlog of RSS feeds, making a dozen calls as you drive from here to there.... This morning as I was rushing to get ready for work, I looked out my front window and noticed that the sky was on fire. I could have just took a quick look and kept moving but I decided to go outside and enjoy the brief show of beauty. As I did this 5 deer came up out of the draw below our house and crossed about 50 ft in front of me, crossed the street and headed further up the hills. I knew then it was going to be a good day, and realized that it is worth it to slow down once in a while.
