A moment

A lot can happen in a moment...joy, sadness, excitment, pain, happiness, worry, stress, peacefulness...

 

Since my "insult" 8 months ago the most common question I'm asked is "Has the experience changed you in any way?"

 

Other than living with the trauma, I believe I am more in the moment. Of course other stuff gets in the way but I'm more likely to be present these days. It sounds cliche but the precisousness of life is something to be acknowledged and honored rather than pushed aside because you are in the pursuit of whatever goal you have.

 

Next time you feel joy...stay with that feeling as long as you can. Why not? It's fun and feels pretty good too :)

I always tell myself to be in the moment. One way is to really chew your food and savor rather than gulp it.

As a child of Holocaust survivors I learned the preciousness and joy of savoring every good moment at a very early age. Cherish every moment as the gift it is-

Mitch, Thank you for your blog and sage advice ~ I agree with you. Last week I visited a close friend who is gravely ill and am trying to stay with the joyful feeling of being together. Surely I'll always cherish it.

Always revel in the joyful and happy to share it whenever and wherever
