Driving through a snow-covered highway at high speeds this past Winter while large trucks loomed in the rear-view mirror we pondered the fragility of life. Sometimes the temptation to avoid such challenging situations is great. A friend's words, though, often come to mind: "You can get where you are going if you just take your time." How true in life as well. Living at warp speed brings few rewards. You miss the scenery if your focus is merely on the traffic and who is in front of you. Slow down. Take your time. You'll get there.

 Peace to you this day. Peace.
