The Moment

Be in… the moment when you see a baby taste a pickle for the first time.
 
Be in…  the moment when your partner holds your hand just because.
 
Be in…  the moment when you feel sand between your toes at the ocean’s edge.
 
Be in…  the moment when you wipe the tears from your child’s eyes.
 
Be in…  the moment when you feel the wind on your face on a cool, blustery day.
 
Be in…  the moment when the crowd is cheering together in excitement and unity.
 
Be in…  the moment of a loved one’s final breath which brings their angelic welcome home.
 
Be in…  the moment of smelling homemade chocolate chip cookies baking in the oven.
 
Be in…  the moment of hearing a chorus of perfectly tuned voices reach your inner spirit.
 
Be in…  the moment when you are alone, with God, in His tender mercy, in His perfect peace.
 
Be in…  the moment of laughing so hard you cry and snort a little.
 
Be in… this moment, right now, whatever it is…because it is the only moment you have.
 
 Hoping this moment is bringing you peace and joy,
Celeste
