This month I am skipping wedding Wednesday. Partly because I have forgotten what topic I wanted to cover (forgot to write it down) and partly because I think at some point we all need the reminder that we need to slow down and take a moment.

I think we sometimes forget that even in the midst of things we still need to take a moment and enjoy the simple things. All to often we can get caught up in the next project, the next job, the next weekend and it can lead to waiting our lives away.

I find sometimes that I get into this very rut. Waiting for the next weekend. Wishing it was Friday and then watching Saturday and Sunday fly by in a blink. It’s hard to remember to just take a moment to breath in the fresh fall air. To enjoy the sun rise. or to take a moment and just be.

Even though this is short and sweet today I’m hoping this finds you and reminds you to take a moment to just be, smell the flowers, smell the coffee, watch the sun rise, watch the sun set, feel the slight chill in the air, feel the wind through your hair. Make a promise to yourself that you will take a moment.

After all it sometimes only takes one moment of clarity can lead to a better day and a better life.
