Moments Ago

“Use your precious moments to live life fully every single second of every single day.”

--Marcia Wieder quote



There are those people that you pass by everyday but whose names you never know.

Then there are the people who you kind of know but don’t know if they remember you so you glance up while they are glancing down;you glance down when they glance up. Both have the good intention of saying hi and flashing a small grin, but neither one ever gets the chance.

And those are the small moments that you forget only until it happens again. Until one day someone passes you on the street and you catch their eye—and you both smile. A small moment like that can boost your whole mood.

See, life is made up of those little moments that map out your day, your week, your year and ultimately your life. Little moments, or big moments, living in the moment or passing it by. We are constantly changing. We are shedding skin, growing new skin and hair, pumping new nutrients into our system. Technically we are a different person everyday. Add in every moment you have, especially the distinctive moments.

Now that I appreciate these moments, I try and make more of them because they are quiet easy to create. It always feels good to add to someone’s day. You never really know how you affect them.

Smile at a stranger today.
