Sometimes living in the moment is tough with all the demands, white noise and to do lists swarming around like a bunch of annoying bees. Responsibilities trump peace, and setbacks seem to keep popping up. In the midst of the chaos, it is important to remember what is truly important.
Our family, relationships and love are what holds us together when things get tough. A hug, a friendly voice at the other end of the phone, a note or a knowing smile reminds us that we are more than our jobs, more than our paychecks, stack of bills or lists of undones. All we can do is the best we can do on a daily basis, and let the rest fall away at the end of the day. Play with the dog, take the kids out for ice cream. Creating memories is half the work, remembering them is the rest.
Remember to take the time to really enjoy the company of someone you love and not swirl around in the busy-ness of it all. At the end of the day, love is all that matters so create the moment and then stay in it.
