And now we are here, after the wind stole time away, each second, with every ticktock. Much can be thrown at you, the joy and the sad, and knock the very breath out of you.
I've learned something in the past few months. Something about living in the moment. It is all you have. I don't have the past, those are moments passed. Done. Forever in history. Never to be relived, literally. I can store them in my heart, mind, and camera. I don't have the future. It hasn't happened yet. Moments not for certain. Unknown. I have now, this moment.
It's a redundant reminder, but it is true. Everyone says it all the time, and maybe that's annoying or maybe it's okay. So, instead of sitting here trying to recreate the good memories or remove the painful moments in the past, I can look back, remember, laugh, cry, scream, breathe, and reflect. Then take a moment and hope, dream, focus, and care for the future in healthy ambition to one more step, one more breath. In the mean time, I have this moment.
Just something I thought of. Writing this to remind myself. Something I hope to remember as I sing Auld Lang Syne in 48 hours.
Here's to another one. Cheers.
