this moment

in this moment the world is perfect. in this moment, the pugs are snoring at my feet. the sun has shown its pretty face and a butterfly is dancing on the wind. in this moment, life has balance and purpose. in this fine, fine, fine moment.

in this moment i'm surrounded by love. my mother's things, my father's handicraft, memories of those who have gone on before us but leave a legacy. in this moment, all possibilities are mine. in this moment i can close my hand around them and hold on so very tight.

in this moment peace has been given to me. and in this moment, i am truly grateful.

    i am in need of such a moment. i'm going to look for one tomorrow. not because i'm procrastinating, but because it's dark now and time for bed. and i think such moments probably need really great light.

i feel as if each comment was between us as we sat and sipped something warm....i love to hear what you're thinking.
