This Moment

To Laura and Jason, Molly and Mallory-Although I cannot truly imagine where you are tonight, I wanted to say this to you:

Sometimes this moment seems too heavy.  Sometimes the moment I am to be living in and savoring tastes bitter.  Sometimes this moment makes my heart hurt.  Sometimes the moment is stretched longer than I could have imagined possible.  And sometimes the moments are fleeting and furtive.
But the nature of moments is that they are, well, momentary.  So, I will stand and hold the heaviness until it lightens.  I will taste the bitter and remember the sweet.  I will share the pain I feel in my heart and take comfort in my blessings.  And I will live in this moment and the next and the next.

You are loved in this moment and all the rest of them.

  1. Donna~ Just beautiful! Thank you so very much. That just about sums it up. We are in shock, very numb, but, we know this is what God wants.
