How far must we travel in life before we arrive at our destination? Get there, as in attainment, accomplishments. Do we really need so much speed? What exactly is the rush for? If you get it, then what? How about we take things slow and steady?

Live on your own terms
People will only post the good parts; no one will show their sorrows or weaknesses online. Don’t be jealous. Don’t copy. You don’t have to fake it to make it.

Take your time with life.
Hopefully, this sinks.
Another day, another drop of honey…
