Spinning


I keep waiting for life to slow down a bit.  So I can do some of the things I've been meaning to do.  Like stare at the clouds.


Play in the creek.


Take my kids to the park.


Waiting for life to stop spinning quite so fast and give me a bit of time.


But life is stubborn.  Life plunges along whether you are holding on or not.


We are responsible for making our own time.  For doing those things we want to do.


For finding our own balance.


***Here is a note added by Nick in the comments.  I thought I'd share it with everyone in case you were looking for some clarity...
It's not clear from those pics (thanks to a fast shutter speed...) but that spinny thing was actually SPINNING.

And pretty fast, too...

And Munch could stand in the center and move her feet fast enough to NOT spin with it. An impressive feat - both physically and metaphorically...

I wish our park still had a merry-go-round! The pictures bring back some fun memories.
