Great point about slowing down to enjoy the moments of the day. I was excited when i saw the title of you piece as I thought you might have the same symptom as i do - which is my speech is often speeds up uncontrollably and I've discovered so does my right when trying to learn a new guitar strumming pattern. I've wanted to play the guitar for years and in particular the Bo Diddley beat. I've spent months working on nailing that beauty but trying to do it slowly to I get the emphasis on the right upstroke/downstroke is seemingly impossible. So I have to settle for the pleasure of having the guitar in my hands and making some sounds with it that are perhaps getting closer. Maybe I'll never play it the way I want but I'll keep trying.
