Moments II


I cannot do better describing my revelations than I did in January of 2017. So, a reminder:

Once again, this holiday, I remembered what is most important in my life. Relationships. Once again, I was reminded that all we have are moments. This moment, right now. Always, right now. We have memories, of course. But they are just that. Memories. So we must be sure we are present, appreciating every one.

It can be as simple as holding a baby on your chest. Or holding someone’s hand as you look at the ocean. Or hugging your dog. Or sharing laughter over a silly game. Or eating biscuits with honey for breakfast two days in a row. Or more.

The bad stuff will come and go. Misunderstandings, hurt feelings, lost jobs, lost people. The good stuff may only come in moments. So grab them. Hold them tight. See the beauty around you. Savor joy when it comes.
