286 / Travelling at the speed of the soul
“I suspect that the mind, like the feet, works at about three miles an hour. If this is so, then modern life is moving faster than the speed of thought.”
What would it be like to run your life at the speed of your own soul,
instead of always feeling like you need to speed up or slow down to match someone else?
“Rebecca Solnit put it much the same way…: ‘I suspect that the mind, like the feet, works at about three miles an hour. If this is so, then modern life is moving faster than the speed of thought.’ In other words, thoughts – or souls – can get left behind if their hosts move too quickly.”
