Inspirational Thoughts About You and This Very Moment

Do you agree with the following inspirational thoughts? We do not remember days, we remember moments. ~ Cesare Pavese.

Now stop and think for a minute. What are your five top memorable moments – good and/or bad? What makes them memorable? Here is the point. Every second is ticking by – no matter what your personal situation, circumstances, feelings, etc…. There will be things that you remember from each day and things that you do not remember.

Inspirational thoughts: Life is not lost by dying; life is lost minute by minute, day by day, in all the thousand small, uncaring ways. ~ Stephen Vincent Benet.

I have learned that if you want to have a more fulfilling and enjoyable life, you must learn to enjoy more moments. Let me tell you a short story. My family is extremely busy – both of my sons have full lives that do not allow me to enjoy them as much as I’d like. However, over the holidays, I created precious moments that are now very profound and special. Each day, from Christmas Eve through New Years,  I lived in the moment with my kids. I focus on special little things I may have otherwise overlooked. From the mischievous glint in my younger son’s eyes to the family group hugs – it was all so much more special, because I paid attention and was determined to find joy in every single moment that I could. Even as I type these words, the warm feelings flow over me.

That’s what your life is all about – creating those moments. You don’t have to wait for your circumstances to change – simply vow to find those small things you can appreciate. It may not seem like much, but it really is a big deal. You see, life is filled with so much complexity and stuff that finding joy in the moments is a positive weapon that you need.

So, the next time you are having a trying day (or even if you are having the best day of your life) find something to enjoy in the moment. As always, I leave you with special inspirational thoughts and sayings:

Life is a succession of moments. To live each one is to succeed. ~ Corita Kent

The bliss, even of a moment, is still bliss. ~ Jonanna Baillie

This – this was what made life; a moment of quiet, the water falling in the fountain, the girl’s voice…a moment of captured beauty. He who is truly wise will never permit such moments to escape. ~ Louis L’ Amour
