Rush
written by: Glen McKenzie
@justabitfurther
the blur confused living
where distraction reigns
constant acceleration of living
of life
where strife is supreme
distraction is absolute
fast, slow
I beg slower
please
dead slow
death becomes a choice
living or dead
so is the grey realm in between
can’t slow down
life pressing the accelerator
my tank is empty
why the rush
A +50-year-old(although very young at heart) hiker; canoe tripper; adventurer and outdoor enthusiast who enjoys craft beer.
Hiking, canoe tripping as well as other outdoor adventure activities, can be seen as a metaphor for living. Both are journey’s filled with scores of good and not so good steps. Highs and lows; successes and failures.
Over the years, have realized that spending time in the outdoors pursuing whatever type of outdoor activity you choose opens up a wonderful and life-changing array of lessons on living and ourselves if, we are willing to stop, observe and listen.
Come and join me.
