Each Moment of Your Life

Many times in my life I've taken mental photos and stored them neatly away in the file cabinets of my mind. Now of course with technology being what it is, it's in the RAM of my mind. Today I had such a moment. I was given an opportunity to get a free massage and I of course jumped at it. It's amazing how much stress you actually hold in your back and your shoulders and neck. As the nice lady massaged my neck commenting about the kinks and knots, I smiled relaxing and with a sigh, taking a mental picture. When I'm stressed I take out these wonderful pictures and replay them in my mind.

Last year I was on a cruise for a few days. Oh how the stress of months weighed heavily on me. I probably was closer at that moment to my breaking point than I had ever been. I stood on the deck of the ship and looked out into the blue sky dotted with white clouds and the aqua ocean which broke in white caps. I took a picture of that moment. A picture not on a camera, but in my mind. A mental image to replay when I need a 1 minute vacation.

I do have others, of family and friends of travels and home. Moments which I captured and hold inside. No one else can see them and they are truly my secret. I keep them ready to pull up at any moment when I just need a quick smile. These are good images and the ones you remember most.

These moments are what we hold on to. They give us a small measure of peace in a world that is so hectic and full the stress of life. Hold on to those mental moments, because they are tiny little oasis in the desert of time.
