Every once in a while, through all of the stress and pain, I
catch sight of a fleeting moment of joy, pleasure, and pure happiness. They are few and far between these days, but
when that moment arrives, it smacks me in the face and sends me back to a
carefree time that I can appreciate now.
How often do you look back on your life and say things like “wow, those
were the best years” or “I looked so young and innocent then.” Of course, if you knew in that moment that
you’d have future thoughts that would cause you to yearn for yesteryear, you
might very well live your life differently, and with a stronger purpose.
There are fleeting moments where I feel…happy. There are moments when I feel “normal.” I
realized today that without feeling lows, you cannot possibly appreciate the
importance of the days of happiness and normalcy. My trigger today was my son’s belly laugh,
caused by a television commercial.
