Cheers !!!

Have you ever had a moment in time, when all seems right with the world?
A moment when things are just fine ... and you are left with a sense of awe and wonder?

Those moments are precious, and often they are fleeting ...

They may come watching a prairie sun rise ... or a sun set, depending on one's preference ...

They may come holding a new born child or grandchild for the first time ...

They may come standing on a beach, soaking in the sun ...

They may come walking through a garden and being overwhelmed by the smells, the colours and the textures around you ...

They may come finishing a project or a handicraft for someone, or for yourself ...

They may come in the quiet whisper of a conversation over tea with a dear friend, or a cherished family member ...

Each of us have our own list of special moments. Moments we could dare to say are Holy moments when we feel that God is in His heaven, and the planets and the cosmos are turning and unfolding as they should ... Cherish those moments. Savour them.

Take them as a gift, and hold on to them ... they come to all of us in abundance and in profusion - the problem is, sometimes we are simply too busy to appreciate them ...

My hope in the coming days, is to be able to sit down over a fresh, hot cup of coffee and take stock of those moments ... and cherish each one that has come, and I prepare to open my eyes to their abundance in my life ... and my hope is that you will too ...

Seize the moment ...
