Little Moments In Life

"Things change. And friends leave. Life doesn't stop for anybody.” ― Stephen Chbosky No life can't stop, but those living in life can slow down. Today I noticed something, not everyone is having the same day as YOU. As life continues day to day, people continue as well, moments happen both good and bad. Today, I met a girl whose face was full of tears, as I started to pass her, I felt like I needed to ask her how she was. When asked she started to pour her heart out, tear continuing to fall. As her story revealed it self, I was at a loss of words, and could do nothing but listen and pray. As she left, I couldn't help but think about this moment. That I happened to be here at this time. How many moments do people need help and I ignore or do not take notice? I cringed thinking of this... How many times do we run through life not taking time to notice the activities of others around me? Why are we so selfish that we think life is all about us? Just a thought about my day.

COMPLETE!

Eleanor Roosevelt once said

“Do one thing every day that scares you.”

I had not realized how great of advice this was until I realized the list of things that scare me! The list sort of looks like this: 1) Spiders in the corner...who knows what they are doing! 2) Public Speaking...and yes, I am on the speech and debate team! 3) Failing a class I pour my heart and brains into yet despite my best efforts it is just not working out for you. 4) Rejection and the list goes on and on. This quote I found today and I realized I had done one of these without realizing it! That many times I do many of these. Not because it is a challenge like Eleanor seems to think it could be, but out of necessity. Things that scare you should not stop your life, but rather it seems that it could/should turn into a necessity that needs to be done. How is that possible? I do not know but it seems like it does happen at times unintentional or not. I personally like it that way, scary things are dominated with they jsut become something that must be done and will be done. Just a thought! :)
