Slow and Steady

I've been in many relationships throughout my life. I can't think of one I didn't jump in with both feet quickly, including my two marriages. Recently, I have started dating someone and have chosen to do things differently. I am reminded that you must do something differently to get a different result. I'm taking things slow and steady. 


Slow and Steady By Annette CampJuly 1, 2024
I've never truly had a reason to take things slow in a relationship.Immediate passionwas common.
But I've found that the reward is in the small moments of discovery, in learning yet one more thing.
Each day reveals something new, deepening our connection and building a strong, solid foundation.
It’s a path that demands patience and trust, but the richness it brings is incomparable.
The journey may be slow, but the memories we create along the way are worth every moment.
I truly believe that this pace allows us to cherish every hug and stepof the way.
I hug consciously, fully present in the moment, embracing the warm closeness it brings and its powerful impact. 
Each hug becomes a meaningful act, an exchange of comfort and affection, where I am aware of the bond it strengthens.
It’s a way to express care and gratitude, to be truly there for someone, creating a sense of harmonyand understanding that words often fail to capture. 
There is a beauty in conscious hugs andtaking things slow and steadyin our datingrelationship.
