Temperance

Daily writing prompt
What are you passionate about?

Right now, I am perfectly happy to just exist and let the world do whatever it will. Sometimes we need to get off the merry-go-round and just…Be.

Passions are a great thing to have, but there’s something to be said for just hanging back and flowing along once in awhile. Call it temperance, call it moderation. By whatever name you choose, it’s ok to get out of the rapids and paddle leisurely up the lazy river for a spell.

Have a nice day,folks. ๐Ÿ‘

    All in divine timing.
    Sorry, a bit of ramblingโ€ฆ.
    Just being and flowing is perfect. ๐Ÿ˜Š

    1. Indeed. Sometimes it’s best to just ride the wave and let it take you where it wants to. Usually with a bit of luck you end up where you’re supposed to be ๐Ÿ˜Š

  5. We leave too little room for this essential and crucial mode in our hyperscheduled modern lifestyle. We even do it to the children.
