“Stop long enough to let your soul catch up to your body.”
You’ve probably heard this before. It’s good. It encourages us to slow all the way down to now--which is very good--since now is the one and only place any of us exists. But this saying is a little like a variation of putting the cart before the horse. Our souls don’t need to catch up to our bodies--as if our bodies should be determining our “soul speed”--though our culture urges and affirms pushing our bodies to their limits and beyond. (Just ask Simone Biles) No. Our bodies need to slow down to our soul’s speed (Again, just ask Simone Biles).
Makes me wonder. Is she really experiencing a bout of mental illness? Or, is she the one sane one in the whole system?
TODAY.
LET’S GIVE THE WORLD & OURSELVES A GIFT.
LET’S TAKE TIME TO THINK ABOUT HOW WE THINK.
