Why do you suppose that advice will not be taken? We have all heard, many times, 'Slow down and smell the roses/drink the coffee'. Actually, if you drink the coffee, you will not likely slow down, so I never have understood that. Point being, we never do slow down. Even poets are a pretty mad lot. I think it stems from a feeling of unworthiness - that rushing about is our way to earn our lives, leave a mark, pile good (or othrwise) deeds up in a heap. Do nothing? Nothing doing! And yet... our happiest moments, we're usually just sitting there.
