Moment
(page 4)
Every moment in our lives is a miracle we should enjoy instead of ignoring.
Financial crisis is the moment of truth for real collectors and true artists.
Life was always a matter of waiting for the right moment to act.
The important thing is this: to be able, at any moment, to sacrifice what we are for what we could become.
I'm thankful for every moment.
Some days, 24 hours is too much to stay put in, so I take the day hour by hour, moment by moment. I break the task, the challenge, the fear into small, bite-size pieces. I can handle a piece of fear, depression, anger, pain, sadness, loneliness, illness. I actually put my hands up to my face, one next to each eye, like blinders on a horse.
Friends can help each other. A true friend is someone who lets you have total freedom to be yourself - and especially to feel. Or, not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at the moment is fine with them. That's what real love amounts to - letting a person be what he really is.
Music does a lot of things for a lot of people. It's transporting, for sure. It can take you right back, years back, to the very moment certain things happened in your life. It's uplifting, it's encouraging, it's strengthening.
If you aren't in the moment, you are either looking forward to uncertainty, or back to pain and regret.
Metamorphosis has always been the greatest symbol of change for poets and artists. Imagine that you could be a caterpillar one moment and a butterfly the next.
We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.
Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.
Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
