Fortunately , I've had many moments that took my breath away.

Dixie,

That thought left me breathless.

Thanks for the cheerful thought ... and it is one.

We can choose to live life and enjoy what it has to offer...or wither away and die.

We can choose to focus on moments one can only dream of...or we can lie in a bed of fleas and complain.

It's unfortunate that no matter how we strive to take the best picture of the most beautiful moment in time...the picture can never do it justice. But it lives inside our memory forever.

It is the beautiful moments in life that leave one gasping for air...but the terrible moments seem to leave us in abundance of air.

Now this is a great blog. Didn't someone else post this some where, or I read it somewhere? We tend to forget such moments, but they flash through our minds occasionally. Like the pride you feel at small accomplishment of a grandchild. Like my son saying "the hardest thing I ever had to do was help carry PaPa's casket to the grave." Not that it was heavy, but the single most important influence in his life at early age was no longer with us.
