This review is from: Slowing Down in a Speeded Up World (Paperback)
Reading this book made me realize that when my own mother hummed and stared out the window while hand washing a sinkful of dishes, that she was de-stressing. Likewise, even after we got a dryer, most times she would still hang the laundry out. My Dad also had a little ritual of detailing his car on Saturday mornings, hand washing, whisking out the carpets, cleaning the windows.When I first ordered this book, I thought.."Oh, it's a cutesy book." I tossed it on the console table and there is sat for some time. On a whim, I tucked it in my carry on bag for a trip to Florida. Lying on the beach, I pulled it out and started reading it. It is a little jewel of a book. I came away feeling a new respect for doing things manually when we have machines to do the same job. You will enjoy this book. |
