Defining Moments

We have many defining moments in our lives...you know, the ones where the light suddenly comes on and we can see our situation clearly.

Some of the most important ones are the moment when you fall in love, or the moment you know the love has gone. And what about the moment when you realize you've made a life changing mistake? Or even the moment you realize that no matter what you do you're going to fall.

Sometimes the defining moment is just a matter of your mind slipping through all the garbage, hopes, dreams, and mental blindness until you can't escape the truth. Clarity can be startling.

One of the nicest defining moments you can experience is that elusive thought that starts as a tiny seed in your mind until it reaches full bloom and you know that at this moment in time you are happy.
