If you rush, you will never get there

I rush to get there, thinking it will make me happy when all I have done is miss my day, week, and life.

I rush through the motions, thinking I need to get through it all to keep it all together when all I have done is create a mess of partially completed tasks.

I rush, thinking there is better than here and now, yet I never get there in my rush.

What if I try presence, patience, and wholeness instead?
