The Slow Food Movement was originated from Italy in 1992 and emphasizes the importance of the traditiontional foods. These foods are made by labor intensive and time-consuming traditional methods. The Slow Food movement reflects people's willingness to live in a slow face. I totall agree with the idea of the movement and I strongly believe that it is better to live in a slow face than to be in a hurry for three reasons.
First of all, people can take care of their loved people when they live in a slow pace. When people hurry to get things done, they have to concentrate on the task. Thus, they do not have time to look over their family and friends. I believe the ultimate aim of our lives is happiness and famly and friends are the most important elements of happiness. However, people have to remember that they have to invest their time to make the intimate relationship with loved people. Threfore, people need to take time and live in a slow speed.
Another considerable benefits of living in a slow pace is that people can pay attention on social and environmental problems. The current society was constructed on the base of individualism which made people to take care of only themselves or their own families. This trend is getting even worse people live in a fast pace. However, it is impossible to solve social and environmental problems withoug the attention of the public because meny of them are related to live of people. For example, people prefer having fast foods when they are in a hurry, which can produce enormous amount of waste and exaggervate the severity of the environmental pollution. In contrast, people can take care of their gardens, which can reduce the pollutants.
Also, people can stay healthy when living in a slow pace. The modern society is chaning so fast that it is difficutl to follow the changes. However, the society still urge the public to keep up with the changes. Under these conditions, people get unimaginable amount of stress. One sociological research revealed that more than 60 % of workers in Seoul suffer from mental stress and 10% of them are in life-threatening state. Thus, taking time and living in a slow pace is integral to reduce the stress. The significant amount of stress ca be reduce just by chatting with loved people. Therefore, through taking time, people can maintain their mental health.
The modern society force people to work in a hurry and take relaxing time from them. However, I prefer to live in a slower pace because I can take care of my loved people and can take time to concern about various social problems as a member of the society. Also, I can relive the mental stress and stay healtht.
