My dear fellow-academics: Life in the Slow Lane is the Route to Happiness, Contentment, Inner Peace, Meaningful Life and indeed, more Productivity, Efficiency, more Publications and far better Students’ Reviews! I hope you are listening!
Can this professor in -The Fast Lane- be of any use to himself,

In the dark days and nights we all need the healing power of a lighthouse. There is a lighthouse in each one of us, in each culture, civilisation and faith.
Yalda is the Lighthouse, a gift from ancient Persia and the ancient Zoroastrians
Great Mother Earth, bless us with true understanding of the cycles of your seasons!

‘Founded in 2000, Earthfire Institute is a sanctuary for rescued wildlife native to the Yellowstone to Yukon Wildlife Corridor. Living with these wild animals over their lifetimes, founder and Executive Director Susan B. Eirich, Ph.D. vividly illuminates the incredible connection of these animals to each other and to the humans who care for them. Through inspirational storytelling, Susan shares her experiences with these animals, in play, in love, and through their passing. From a wolf who maneuvered her way into cabin-living, to a developmentally delayed bear who deeply moved all who met him, these are the stories of the animals of Earthfire–a taste of the laughter, joy and love they brought, and the insights they offered.
