Northern Lights
3:56 PMI felt a little gift over the fourth of July weekend (one little extra blessing among many if I really think about it).
In my initial reflection about slowing down, I said I wanted to find a beach and take a swim and see the Northern Lights from my childhood.
(from google images search - i tried to find one like my childhood experience)
The Huffington Post has a recent article about slowing down time perception, and talks about the reasons behind what we all feel - as a kid you think time takes forever, and as an adult you feel like it can't slow down.
"The more detailed the memory, the longer the moment seems to last." The remedy is a combination of mindfulness and introducing yourself to new experiences, both of which I think are valuable. Mindfulness, thankfulness, new inputs.
