In this constantly moving world is there any way to remain calm and peaceful? If you closely look at yourself or others, you will observe that everybody is running fast as there is some race which all of us want to win. But nobody knows in which race they are running. Since everyone is running so we are. We are surrounded with fast pace technology, high speed computers, electronic gadgets and lot more other stuff which is making our mind constantly working or thinking something every bit. We need to pause our mind and make ourself still for sometime to enjoy the life or environment around us.
