'Never be in a hurry...'



Many of you know that I am a huge St. Francis de Sales fan. I am continually amazed by the way this 17th century bishop speaks so profoundly and relevantly to our modern times. I thought I'd share a quote that speaks to me in a particular way these days.

Ponder these words:

"Never be in a hurry; do everything quietly and in a calm spirit. Do not lose your inner peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset." -- St. Francis de Sales

Now, take a deep breath, close your eyes, and simply be for just two minutes. It will bring a sense of calm to whatever it is you're doing right now.
