A Spectacular Moment

Do you ever feel like you're just going through the motions?

I feel like that today. Nothing special is happening. Nothing out of the ordinary differentiates this day from the previous. Like I am waiting for a spectacular moment. And then it makes me a little sad- that life can be a little boring.

And then a coworker/friend told me that if every moment of my life were a spectacular moment, I wouldn't be able to handle it. And if every moment of my life were a spectacular moment, then I would want a spectacular spectacular moment and wish for one of those for every moment of my life. (Ah, such a vicious cycle life can be sometimes).


And then I take a deep breath, and happily wait for my next spectacular moment.

It's a sobering experience to sit in those unspectacular moments and realize just how fragile we are, that simplicity and repetitiveness follows us around wherever we go.

Here's to escaping it now and then!
