Hurry Burry

 "Most people I do not meet them at all , for they do not seem to have time - they are busy about their beans? 

Henry David Thoreau, Walden pg.87

People in Hurry cannot be patient ; People in Hurry cannot love  

Eknath Eswaran

Me and my wife once went to meet a doctor in Chennai for Consultation. The doctor, a lody , retired from government service and a very famous one  - suddenly opened up about her personal life - 

She went on : "I spent way too much time on my work in my prime days and missed my time with my only daughter- now she is married off and living in United States - I am not sure if I should have worked so hard - at the cost of spending time with my only daughter. While in my own case , my own mother took care of me so much . "

probably, Too little and a Too late realization for the Doc!

People  in hurry cant love!
