Moments

There are moments that you sit there and you just know that this moment will change your life. They will change your outlook, thoughts, dreams, even your personality!
Moments like:
-when your pronounced husband and wife
-when your baby is born
-when you graduate
-when you fall in love
-when you find your career
-when you achieve a dream
-when you witness something so powerful it shocks your soul
- when you make a mistake that tilts your world
-when you meet someone who challenges your beliefs

I`ve had a few moments that I believe changed my life, changed me.
One is when I lost a close friend to drugs...it tore my heart apart and I knew then that I would never do drugs or get high or anything of that sort. I also knew I would never let myself love an addict or let a friend follow that path again.
Another would be when I let go of something so precious and important, it shattered my soul and it took me a while to put the pieces back together...well actually I think I still am.
It makes you realize how much a moment mean when you really look at life and all its moments. There are always moments leading up to that moment but it`s not until that pinnacle moment that your life is changed...or maybe it`s more that is the moment that you realize your life has changed. Maybe each life changing moment has an after-moment when you realize that your life has changed. No only some do. Some moments don`t need that after-moment..sometimes you just know.
There has been another moment lately. I met someone who has changed my outlook,...changed how I see myself and others...made me rethink some of my goals, my beliefs, my desires. Strange how one person can change everything and yet nothing.
In one small moment.
love
