It is possible even to hurry patiently, mindfully,
moving fast because you have chosen to.

relating to each other, but not tied in any relationship.

but never even in their dreams thinking of dominating,
thinking of enslaving the other person.

It's YOUR time - it's YOUR life -
YOU get to choose how you use it. T

What about YOUR vision for your life?
What do YOU want?
YES, it matters what you want.
YES you can have what you want.
