It is a commonplace of the spiritual masters that the deepest part of the soul likes to go slow since it seeks to savor rather than to accomplish; it wants to rest in and contemplate the good rather than to hurry off to another place.

Robert Barron in Heaven in Stone and Glass by Robert Barron

 

To Practice This Thought:
Slow down and be here with yourself.
