One Last Moment

So the last day of this first 30 day challenge. It is one last moment and I will choose a couple I had today since I work up. It is chilly, cloudy and rainy outside and for a brief moment I thought about staying in bed but it was only for that moment. I got myself up and took the dogs for a longer walk then I thought I would. It was not raining at that point and it felt good to out and about. So we got home and my next moment was not going to the gym but again it was only for that moment but I worked past it and went. I am glad I did, it felt good to workout and then come home take a shower and put on comfy clothes. It is still chilly, cloudy and rainy outside but I feel like I achieved a milestone by working through those negative moments and doing a couple of positive things.

Life should be lived one moment at a time and in some of those moments we can be faced with decisions, some minor or some major. It is those moments that matter. In a moment I can tell my husband I love him, offer a quick prayer for someone or just close my eyes and breath deeply. Things can change in a moment, a loved one can die or a baby born. A job can be lost or a job can be found. And all these moments add up and well most of the time we go through moments in our life just living, making dinner or cleaning house, there are those defining moments, major or minor, that can impact us.

Today's moments for me may seem minor but for me they were major, they were healthy choices in the face of chilly weather because I am not a fan of cold but here I live in a place that will get much colder than it is today. If I had chosen to stay in bed or not go to the gym when it was only chilly then how will I react when it is actually cold. In those moments I hope I choose to get outside and get moving. So let's just take a moment to breath deeply and forge on.
