"Precious moments are like dewdrops, cherish them before they are gone with the morning sun, for someday when you look back those may be all that you have."
How true it is in this fast paced life, where all are in a rat race and you have let moments of your life pass by just like that. Memories are precious moments that you wrap closely around your heart in delicate ribbons, the ones that are not held dear to you, unties itself naturally. Memories warm you from the inside, when the shadows of bygone days tend to haunt. Precious moments of time and place, bring joy to your hearts and smiles to your face, remembering back on the years that just fled. They are like flash heads from the heart, which remind you of the roads traveled, the places and people who touches your heart along life's journey. Cherish those precious moments because they did not happen by plan or design, but by feelings, hunch, chance, fate or destiny.
When you look at life with wonder, everything around you is like a miracle. Be cheerful when you ride the roller coaster of life, appreciating only the lovely moments with an optimistic and positive attitude. Take life as an adventure, laugh, smile, bring magic moments and create memories that lasts a lifetime. Life is precious and appreciate the special moments of life. You always treasure those rare moments that took you unawares. In today's tumultuous and challenging times, the real reasons why you work so hard for the joy and comfort for your loved ones is often overlooked. It is the fulfillment of those dreams for your loved ones that become a source of joy and a moment that is most cherished.
You go through the entire day, in oblivion to the small joys and those precious moments that surround you. Take a moment to look around in the busy life when you are struggling to stay afloat, and the constant pressure brings about a subtle numbness that tends to take hold of your life. The tyranny of such times makes you push aside the precious moments around you and harp only on your negative moment only, but that makes life an utter disaster. Life is always unpredictable, but instead of always reminiscing over the lovely moments of life, the tendency is to curse the testing times. Life is always made up of special moments that makes it worth living and it is a sad irony that we miss them due to the stress of the fast paced daily life.
The most precious moment of my life is when I held my twins for the first time after almost a month, though I went through the biggest fight of my life when I left them in the neonatal ward and left the hospital not knowing if I would get them alive. The most special and precious moment is when I held my granddaughter as it was the completion of my womanhood. As Shing xiong quotes, " In the end, it's not going to matter how many breaths you took, but how many moments took your breath away." Each moment of your life is a picture, that you have not seen before, will not see again, so make use of it and make it beautiful.
Another most special and precious moment of my life is meeting that someone, an unforeseen bond that came from nowhere to be a dear son to me. Unforeseen bond and moments with them always takes one by surprise taking your breath away. It is still a fond memory of precious moments, meeting his family and my little friend, his son who just came running out of the car to hug me, something that filled me with a warmth and wonder. The wonderful journey and the time I spent with them, playfully teasing and talking, making it an enhanced bond of life. I consider it a joy and blessing sent my way to always treasure in my heart, the unforeseen bond and affection.
I have realized how precious life is though it is tenuous and fragile. In times of pain, I love to recapture those beautiful moments of life that were sent to me as little blessings before any challenging times. When I think of such precious moments, it is my friend's surprise visit from Noida when I had shaved my head after Chemotherapy, that comes to my mind. She had come to see me after hearing of my cancer and her playful comments of my serene look without hair. Her surprise cake that year after my surgery, on my birthday. There are other moments, when my friend, colleague, and a friend for life, used to come daily to the hospital, whenever I was hospitalized, scolding me like a mother for not looking after myself and used to feed me, saying I wouldn't eat otherwise. I cherish those moments, a sudden peck on my cheeks, by some friends who are like my daughters.
I hold dear those phone calls of a great friend, and value the times I have met her and I always look forward to all weekends, without fail, little moments of immense joy, sent my way as a blessing. The biggest surprise and joy of my life I really hold dear is the moment, on my star birthday in Kerala, when I entered home from the temple with my brother and my friend appeared before me. I really looked at her in disbelief, open mouthed, squealed in delight and hugged her. A perfect birthday gift . She had messaged me in what's app the previous night and never breathed a word that she was in Trichur. My family members were surprised watching my excitement and squeal, from an otherwise cool person.
There are so many other moments, that gave me immense joy, little surprises from friends, precious moments to reminisce during my painful days. I really think those moments special and blessed, when I went to a friend's house and met her invalid daughter who can only feel and hear someone around. When I gave her my finger, she just held on to them and the reciprocation I got caressing her forehead is one I still remember with goosebumps.
My birthday, with surprises from my sons, a bouquet and cake to celebrate that day after midnight, surprise calls, bouquet of roses and many little joys, to fight the pains of my life that is aplenty in my life. But my little joys are umpteen that it surpasses all pains. I always look around for little joys around me, in being one with nature capturing those moments and things I see and find immense happiness in it. I believe in savoring moments of my life. Life is always puzzling, bringing the unknown together, creating unforeseen bonds, that make life beautiful and a blessing of joy to soothe the pains and challenges that take you unawares.
