There is more to life than simply increasing its speed.

this was from the mouth of Mahatma Gandhi, the father of the nation of India. i feel, it's so very true in today's perpective, when we are running to achieve the inattainable zenith !

Yes, we are running after this that and the other, and sometimes we just have to slow down, take a deap breath and look at how nature is so beautiful. I have heard of stories in Ancient China where the Daoist scholars would sit all night under a tree and wait to see a flour blossom, when I HEARD OF THIS STORY, I cried THINKING ABOUT HOW SENSITIVE THESE PEOPLE MUST HAVE BEEN. hOW THEIR HEARTS WOULD HAVE BEEN filled with so much love ans awe. I wish I could live that life.

your post reminds me of the great scholar RABINDRA NATH TAGORE who had started an open school where students are made to study amidst blooms and blosoms. its still running as a renowned university here in India.
