1. Oh those joint pains: hips and back and knees. I like the Italian saying, also the idea that happiness is trying to catch me up. Thank you.

2. We like that.. “Slow down happiness is trying to catch you”.

3. I started having pretty bad joint pain after chemo ended. I love the saying ❤️

4. Thank you for liking my latest blog. It means a lot to me. 🙂 I enjoyed reading this one!! 💝

5. ha.. i thought you were going to say you’d taken up piano lessons!!!!

   ginger, papaya, pineapple and curcurmin are great for relieving the pain… i make a big pot using the fresh ginger/curcurmin and then blend with papaya and pineapple.. dodging plants in the nightshade also helps… potatoes are a big pain trigger for me…

6. thank you for sharing this!
   may the slowing bring
   even more joy & restfulness 🙂

7. Great mottos, I may start using them myself. Especially if I can learn how to say the first one in Italian… I’ll even say it slowly for better effect lol.

8. The piano, Oneanna, is a secret unto the soul only, exclusively and ultimately. Trust that your ears are not your knees! Our spirit strives, even on the whisper of our every wish…

9. When we slow down, we see things we missed when we were going fast, and we enjoy the scenery more. Enjoy the scenery, Anna. 🙂

14. I guess there is an upside to everything, but I’m still sorry for your pain. Take care!

15. Gosh, so there is an upside for the slow pace I am going at right now.

16. Thank your for posting Anna. I will always remember that “he who go slowly, goes healthy and goes far.” I hope you are doing well. All the best, I keep you in my prayers.

20. Thanks for liking my post, and I’m glad I found your blog! All the best to you, peace, health and even more happiness!

21. Yes, pain is a good Teacher.
    We are slowing down or still staying in rush,trying to forget about our body.
    Always, whatever, our new inner Teacher is showing to us, WHO we really are.
    I think all who survived cancer found themselves in time when invisible killer was living in them.

22. May you go sano and lontano!

    Seek peace,

    Paz

23. Hugs. 🙂

24. Happiness opens me every morning and closes me every night I’m alive, and slowly we arrive in our new body to give it a chance to catch up with our minds and souls. Thank you for posting this insight. Sending virtual happiness to you for a weekend of life and love.

25. So sweet! I’m going to start going piano.

26. Hello!
    Thanks for liking my post.
    I, too, have been forced to slow down due to health problems and I, also, have known the oh, so, worn out and drained feeling from living with chronic pain. But, you are one of the first people, besides my daughter, who has ever shared the positive advantage of slowing down. I adore the concept of happiness now being able to catch up with me! I do believe that is the best inspiration and affirmation I have had, lately.
    Thanks, again, and stay blessed.
    Chris

28. You’re so right. I was once told; ‘Stop to smell the flowers and you’ll hear the grass growing.’

    1. Thanks! This is great! I will listen to the grass growing! 🙂 Hugs

    “This old Italian Proverb explains why going slow is better:

    Chi va piano
    Va sano
    Va lontano

    Means: He who go slowly
    Goes healthy
    And goes far”

    I love this saying its short and sweet and is true a lot of us go so fast that we miss the little things in life. So lets go slow and enjoy everything we can 🙂

30. Hardest thing about getting older is the pain (yes I have some), and realizing I have to slow down. I am impatient by nature, even when being patient!

31. Ah, that is very beautiful. I love the idea that happiness is trying to catch up with us. This makes me think of how important it is to try and live in the present moment and not be in such a hurry to get to the next thing. After all, life is the thing that is happening whilst we are busy making plans 🙂

32. I can so relate! Since diagnosed with severe arthritis at a relatively “young” age, going slow is my norm! And like you have said… It isn’t all bad! Not nearly as eloquent as your quote, “Stop and smell the roses” is my new mantra! Thanks for reminding all of this life lesson!

33. Reblogged this on YAHWEH-NISSI.

34. All the best Anna. Will always think of you and will remember you. I wish I had known you in real life. But I have come to know you here. Keep strong, great is the most high. hugs and kisses from me. Juli

35. I think happiness arrives when I sit quietly and appreciate the life I have–busy times and quiet times.

36. So true and I love the Italian quote! Thanks for sharing. I have a poetry blog here on WordPress and today’s post is about slowing down in case you have time to look? Have a good day, Sam 🙂
