Is everyone moving fast? Or is it an illusion? Are you walking running without stopping to think, or is going for a walk or a run good for thinking Many days the sun would shine whether or not you get out of the house l, did you feel it anyway? The birds would sing, if you listened to them; did you hear them or make them sing, is singing something that must be listened to?
Now we have to stop and think about how we are thinking because being metacognitive is very positive............ Now we have to take the time to see; we perceive better by being able to articulate something metaphorically.......... Now we have to take the time to feel our emotions, which come from our thoughts, so that we can take time to stop and think about our thinking.............Today is the only day that exists................ Tomorrow will be even better than today.......... [Chris Parker]

Now we have to stop and think in space unfamiliar to us. Now we have to take the time to see a world we had forgotten was laying below the surface of our morass. Now we have to take the time to feel the pulse of a new heartbeat vibrating old bones into novel rhythms. Today is not yesterday and time spins webs that snap with the slightest tension or stress. Tomorrow will be spectacular for it is lined with dreams, padded with hopes and joy. [Hayden Greene]
