baby steps

I need to learn to take things slow. Stop and just breath. Walk slowly, taking in the circomstance as it comes. Baby steps. No rush. Deep breaths.
When we rush...it can be more scarry running through all the little things. only looking at the big overwhelming picture. But I'm looking at it like this. I am walking on a rope across a huge water fall, with the rapids and waves right under me. If i concentrate on the water...i'll fail...if i concentrate on the rapids...i'll fall, if i concentrate on the hight..i'll fail...if i concentrate on the length of my rope i'll fall. I need to concentrate on my feet and on my balence. The rest will fall in to place. The important part is that i keep walking...but slowly and calmly ..baby steps. I'm in no hurry cuz when it all comes down to it..nothing on earth will matter..the world is not my home.
