this line out of my favourite U2 songs ..always comes to me ..almost out of the air . if i sit still and really take the concept in ..deeply ..all the hustle the bustle ..the fast thoughts ..the race to do everything ever ! twirling faster ..around and around like a tornado of lifes experiences ..until .......................... it stops ...... leaving devastation but the most eerily calm .. we are running only to stand still ....and really have value on what is important .. simply.

    I completely understand the concept and your presentation of it. For a good number of years, I was an avid (?) participant in the twirling whirlwind. I still am (to some degree), but I have taken steps to slow down significantly, simplifying my life where and how I can---and making a concerted effort not to overextend myself, even when others wish that I do. I have not achieved the perfect calm (yet), but I prefer the path that I travel now.
