And the tortoise won the race.

Slow and steady wins the race. That’s something we all know, but what about getting ahead by slowing down? Getting ahead by stepping back? Learning to be still and quiet, while taking on as much as we can and not be idle, to live our lives fully?

He whose heart is kind beyond all measure,

Gives unto each day what He deems best,

Lovingly its part of pain and pleasure,

Mingling toil with peace and rest.

Lina Sandell, Swedish
