The tortoise and the hare

The tortoise and the hare is a story that comes to mind tonight while I sit here.  The hare is fast in the beginning of the race and then becomes tired as the story goes.  The tortoise is consistent and not hasty!  Those of us who know the story know that the tortoise ends up winning as the hare falls asleep.

I know that life is not a comparison but I know I can be like both the hare and the tortoise.  I can be hasty and I can be consistent but I know that a consistent effort rather than a 'catch up' mentality is a lot more beneficial.  

I guess this is a reminder to me and well.. whoever reads this!  To rather be consistent and watch things slowly and quickly change.  

May we take control of our lives step by step (even if it may be painfully slow).

May we have grace with ourselves and others in the process.

Love,

Phoenix and Sarah
