Changes

After changing the look of blog, there are a few things that came to mind:

How quickly fashions change.....
Does this have to do with our discontentment with what we have, or our desires to be like others, the rich and famous?

The cycle of fashion is driven by our desires to want more and fast. The quicker the fashions change, the faster we get tired of them, the more we want, the faster the fashions change. And the cycle continues.

Can we not just slow down? Our lives are a reflection of the fashions. We are busier than ever and achieve less and less. Where do we find the time to slow down, relax and just think? What do we understand when we say "relax"? What is it that we do in our down-time?

I think we need to slow down the cycle in our own lives and maybe just be content for a while, smell the flowers (or coffee, or jungle).
