Slow down, you move too fast...

A society that lives in the fast lane can never be a sustainable society. In a fast-paced world we put a lot of energy into arrivals and departures and less into the experience itself. 

Raising kids, making friends, creating art all run counter to the demand for speed. There is growing recognition that faster speeds are not just a natural fact of the universe. It’s an issue for public attention. 

What has not been discussed before now is: What kind of speed do we want?

It’s a struggle for me to slow down, as it is with many people. But the key is to be able to dedicate yourself to the proper rhythm, geared to what you are doing, whether you are playing with a child, writing a paper or talking to friends. (WSachs)

What kind of speed do you live at?
