Brilliant string of moments

Each thought you think builds your character. Every action you take creates your life.

The small moments and the big occasions all go into the person you are. The public expressions and the private secrets all weave together to form the fabric of your life.

Every moment counts, because every moment serves as a starting point for the moment that comes next. All those details, the ones you can’t recall and the ones you can’t forget, have brought you to where you are now.

Every moment counts, and that can be a terribly burdensome curse or an amazing blessing. It all depends on what you do with those moments from here on out.

Even when no one is watching, what you do still matters very much. Even when it seems that there is no way forward, moment by moment you can surely make your way.

Choose to give your very best to this moment, right here, right now, and keep on making that positive choice. For there is no limit to where your life’s brilliant string of moments can lead.
