Southwest Airlines’ Spirit magazine has the best articles. I
always take this magazine off the plane with me.
This month, they had an article on Slowing Down ("Not So Fast"). How apropos in today’s times…the author talks
about how he and his wife commit to slowing down for 30 days. Taking the time to cook, walking or biking
instead of driving, banning FB and Twitter, which are total time sucks and
choosing personal connection over technology.
He then talks about how in his effort to slow down, he then filled up his
schedule with “slow” practices which led instead to a “slow frenzy” – just more
mellow activities I guess but more of them which of course defeats the purpose.
