Taking the time to contemplate. Look before you leap. Haste makes waste…
When you are an impulsive person (like I am) contemplation doesn’t always come easy! 😉
But contemplation can take different forms.
I like the second definition below: to meditate on or ponder.
It’s all good. And so worth the time too.
Do you find it easy to contemplate life’s big decisions before you make them?
***
con·tem·plate
1. To look at attentively and thoughtfully.
2. To consider carefully and at length; meditate on or ponder: contemplated the problem from all sides; contemplated the mystery of God.
3. To have in mind as an intention or possibility: contemplate marriage; forced by the accident to contemplate retirement.
HAVE A WONDERFUL and MEANINGFUL WEEK! 🙂

Great post, G, and honestly, sometimes I contemplate and analyze too much! 🙂 But the key is finding a balance, because haste isn’t good either. Hugs
