Speed

What speed is your journey at?

I was thinking today that I like to move at a steady amble. (In a 'real' car, I like driving fast but this is the journey of life...and my vehicle is a bulldozer, not an XK8) And when my journey goes 'wrong', I am usually trying to go too fast, or at full stop. In this journey of life, I have a destination I want to get to...but I don't want to get there burnt out, stressed and exhausted. I want it to be the highlight of a fucking amazing journey.

And to enjoy that journey, I need to mooch, to potter, to enjoy the scenery on the way. When I get hooked on the 'pedal to the metal' mindset, the bulldozer breaks down. So, I'm setting a speed limit - no faster than I can go and still see the beauty in the scenery around me.

What is your speed limit?
