COT:
I recently had a conversation with my wife about “where the heck did time go? What happened to October? “
Life is moving fast. My neighbor is the talented Erick Baker (F3 Rocky Top) who wrote this song before the pandemic. “Slow the World Down”
I love his line about sitting in the porch waving to cars as they pass because he’s the type of neighbor who really does that. He will take the time to stop and say hi and will smile and wave as you drive by him in his yard.
It’s a good reminder to slow down, listen to your loved ones, pay atttention to your co-workers, give some time to a neighbor who might really need that boost of community that 5-10 minutes will make a difference to their day. Let’s not crank through the days, weeks, months, years. Let’s enjoy today. Let’s reflect on what God has for us today.
Lyrics below
Everybody’s in a hurry
Caught up in keeping up with things that don’t matter at all
Searching for short cuts
To speed things up as if life is not fast enough
What happened to the front porch
Passing the day with a wave to all the cars as they pass
Time stops for no one
We’ve got one thing in common and its that we’re not growing young
So let’s unplug the clocks not let another minute pass
Help me find a way to stop this life from moving so fast
Won’t you come and slow the world down
Slow the world down
Slow the world down with me
Don’t think about tomorrow
I make a toast to just enjoy the taste of today
Cause life is such a short song
We’ve got to dance to the beat of the second hand slowly counting down
Let’s unplug the clocks not let another minute pass
Help me find a way to stop this life from moving so fast
Won’t you come and slow the world down
Slow the world down
Slow the world down with me
I’ll take the quiet of the country or the sand of the beach
A place where telephone lines don’t reach
Far from the city lights that steal the stars from the night sky
And high rise shadows that block out the sunlight
Where the sand castle is safe cause the tide is always low
And there’s always time and it always runs slow
