Slow Down...

Whilst out on my morning ride I came across a hedgehog (which apparently is endangered), something I have never seen in the wild before. As I stopped to look at this beautiful creature several cars flew past us, they completely missed this wonderful sight because they were going to fast. I thought how true it is in life - we are in such a rush most of the time that we often don't see the small yet beautiful moments in life - like the other day when I was so busy preparing for Christmas that I almost missed out on the wonderful conversation my kids had with one another about who is better: Action man or Jesus? Sorry Jesus my kids think that action man will take you in a fight!

May your life not be so rushed that you miss out on the "endangered " moments of life.
