There's an Egyptian saying called,
"Slow down, don't miss"
It means that, sometimes, running at full speed
Is a curse, not a bliss
Because there are things that you can only see
When you slow down
Put simply, Life can be a marathon
Everyone wants to win
But to reach the finish line,
You can't rely on speed alone
You've also got to concentrate on where
Does the race end and begin
-Currently listening to "Egyptian Whispers" by Amr Ismail.
