Greetings,
Do you have memories of significant moments in time? Most of us do. We can have personal joyful moments in time as well as painful ones.
These are meaningful and important moments when we have encounters and powerful experiences, meet someone who changes the course of our life, or we must choose: whether to marry this certain person, buy this house, choose this job etc. Also the birth of a baby, the death of a loved one, the disappointment of not achieving a certain outcome, a sudden shock.
There are also times when we must make a moral choice for the greater good of others more than for ourselves. A selfless act of kindness when we forego our own safety or comfort to help someone in need.
There are moments in time when we feel “all the ducks are lined up in a row” and we are completely at peace, in wonder and grateful to be alive. We have good health, loving relationships, enough money and a comfortable home. These moments may only last a short while and are precious.
Savour the joyful and magical moments in time and know they are messages to validate that your existence is worthwhile.
When moments in time are challenging it is helpful to say “this too will pass” (as it does). The painful moments assist us to gain wisdom to deal with life and grow strong in our resolve.
There are world events that are powerful moments in time, such as 9/11, the earthquake and tsunami in S.E Asia on December 26th, 2004 (my lovely niece and her new husband miraculously survived this – they were on their honeymoon), the death of Queen Elizabeth of Great Britain after her very long reign. These events and many others change the course of history.
A great moment in time for some can be when we have a spiritual awakening, realising we are much more than the persona we are in physical form. We are a magnificent soul experiencing being a human to grow in consciousness. This is a momentous epiphany.
Enjoy each moment and be the shining light that you are.
Merriene
NB: My new book “A Journey of Thoughts” is getting closer to publication in print form and as an eBook. When this is ready I will also reattach my other three books as eBooks to this site,or a new website, as I discovered they have not been available for sometime. I will keep you posted. With love and blessings M.
