taking time

All of you who know me, know how much I have in common with a cyclone - fast-moving and endlessly so. But I had a small lesson last week in stopping and taking the time to appreciate the moment.

I had just finished business at Casey Council and was driving out of their carpark. Opposite the entrance to Council is a small park and lake, just adjacent to Casey ARC. Whilst I was waiting for traffic to clear, I noticed a couple with a young dog - looked like a Red Heeler, walking around the same side of the lake that I was on.
