Slow Down! Poem by Asher Proschansky

Slow down
Before the world appears to turn fast
Slow down
See everything in slow motion
Slow down
And take a deliberate breath
Slow down
And really listen to those around you
Slow down
And things start to make sense
Slow down
And you will observe
Slow down
when they want you to speed up
Slow down
And just pray you are doing enough
Slow down
there is more time then you think
Slow down
But in your mind and not necessarily your body
Slow down
And deliberate your next move
Slow down
And contemplate
Slow down
And look into the other's face
Slow down
And choose your words wisely
Slow down
And appear wise silently
Slow down
When you're playing speed chess
Slow down
And appreciate what you have
Slow down
And learn from those around you
Slow down
And read micro facial expressions
Slow down
And hear the timbre of the other's voice
Slow down
So as to be understood
Slow down
So as not to be running late
Slow down
And take one step at a time
Slow down
multi task at your own risk and rate
Slow down
Before it is too late!
