“There is more to life than increasing its speed”

Mahatma Gandhi

Simplified Meaning:

Life isn't just about how fast you complete things or rush through your day. Imagine you're on a road trip. If you drive too fast, you might miss all the beautiful scenery around you: fields, mountains, and interesting towns. It's the same with life. If you're always in a hurry, you might miss the small joys and moments that make life meaningful, like a good conversation with a friend, or watching a sunset. In history, look at the story of the tortoise and the hare. The hare was quick but took things for granted and lost. The tortoise went slow and steady and enjoyed the journey, eventually winning. This shows that going slow sometimes means doing better in the end. So, don't just focus on doing everything quickly. Take time to enjoy what you're doing and who you're with. You'll find life more fulfilling and less stressful that way.
