No matter what language it is told in, or how long the tale, in the end,
the tortoise always wins the race.
We are all rational educated adults who are up to date on information
on how stress affects our bodies and mental well-being. We are equally
aware that we are hostage to the technological gadgets that have been
created for our convenience and to make us more efficient and effective
workers, but we know that our reliance on them causes much havoc.
We know we need to slow down in this fast paced life—and we’re not
talking about a weekly trip to our favourite salon or a night’s getaway
to the beach. We’re talking about incorporating a slower paced lifestyle
into our lives so that we can actually enjoy it, warts and all.
