I’m going to a memorial this afternoon at 4pm for a man who was killed accidentally when he pulled over to look at a piece of metal his car had hit.

I woke up late this morning. I’ve barely had time to wake up and say my morning prayers, let alone meditate or make a gratitude list. If I’m going to make my 8am exercise class, I’ve gotta perform a miracle to get my son dressed and get everything in the car and make it up the 405. To attend the memorial I have to leave work early by getting extra stuff done sooner, working through lunch, etc. etc. etc.

This man died because someone swerved to miss someone else-everyone going too fast.

How do I slow down today? How do I live just this day today, and not get ahead of myself? I’m starting with a short blog, a deep breath, and sharing this post. Amen.
