| | A Busy Week
It's been one of those weeks at work where I've felt like I've been rushing everything all week. I've been reminded of an anecdote I read recently in the book, "When Wallflowers Dance" by Angela Thomas.
"In the deep jungles of Africa, a traveller was making a long trek. Coolies had been engaged from a tribe to carry the loads. The first day they marched rapidly and went far. The traveller had high hopes of a speedy journey. But on the second morning these jungle tribesmen refused to move. For some strange reason they just sat and rested. On inquiry as to the reason for this strange behaviour, the traveller was informed that they had gone too fast the first day, and that they were now waiting for their souls to catch up with their bodies."
So I've had a quiet weekend. Hopefully I won't leave my soul dragging so far behind in the week ahead. |
