kiireettäväksi

Kiireettäväksi is a Finnish word that describes a state of being unhurried or relaxed. It conveys a sense of taking one's time, enjoying the moment, and not feeling pressured by external demands or deadlines. The word is derived from the verb "kiirehtiä," which means to hurry or rush. By adding the suffix "-ttäväksi," it transforms into a passive participle, implying a state that can be achieved or experienced.

This concept is often associated with a slower pace of life, mindfulness, and the deliberate act of stepping away from constant busyness. It can refer to various situations, such as a leisurely stroll, a relaxed meal, or a period of calm reflection. In a broader sense, "kiireettäväksi" can also represent a personal philosophy or lifestyle choice that prioritizes well-being and contentment over constant productivity or speed. The idea is to cultivate an environment where one can be present and savor experiences without the imposition of urgency. It encourages a conscious effort to resist the societal pressure to always be in a hurry and instead embrace a more tranquil and deliberate approach to life.
