Moment to Moment

Every day I am realizing just how great life is in simple moments. It’s those special moments you have often that put on a smile and give a deep sense of knowing.

I enjoy being in nature and going to parks. It helps me to be present at the moment. Breathing in fresh air, surrounded by nature, and staring at the body of water if present envokes a sense of calmness.

It’s those other moments too, a warm hug, a nod by a stranger in the street, a courteous driver, the first sip of a warm drink, and the feeling of satisfaction after a good meal shared. It’s these moments that cheer you up.

It’s so easy to get lost in different trains of thoughts, from building to do lists to shopping lists, bill payment reminders, and general day to day worries. I yearn for those moments that center me.
