Life's Rhythm And Harmony




We cannot be happy
 if we expect to live all the time
 at the highest peak of intensity.
  Happiness is not a matter of intensity
 but of balance and order
 and rhythm and harmony.
  Thomas Merton

Slow down and enjoy life. 
It's not only the scenery you miss
 by going too fast -
 you also miss the sense 
of where you are going and why.
  Eddie Cantor
