Stop running the rat race
For you will be missing
the simple joys of life
In seeing the flowers bloom

Stop running the rat race
For you will be missing
the simple touch of the hand
on your lovely face

Stop running the rat race
for you will be missing
the simple smell of mother earth
when the first raindrops kiss the ground

Stop running the rat race
for you will be missing
the simple joys of family life
when tension takes the upper hand

Stop running the rat race
for you will be realizing
money may come and money may go
but you need to go on forever 🙂

Once you escape the rat race, you'll be able to move freely and appreciate the world around you without getting dizzy. Remember: Life is a journey, not the destination, and you don't want to spend that journey on a treadmill going nowhere.🙂
