Making Each Moment Count

Unless we are blessed with a wonderful memory, it is difficult for many of us to remember days gone by. Although we now have the ability to capture these moments on camera, the pictures we are left with only reflect a small portion of our experience. That's why it's so important to take the time to enjoy every moment in life. This is especially true when life begins to get mundane and routine and we lose track of how special it is to be alive. When we find that we are having a harder time recalling the past, we then need to stop and reflect upon what are we doing in the present. Take advantage of each moment that you are given for it is the key to who you are. Today, cherish your time no matter how your day is turning out to be. By being present in life, you open yourself to more opportunities. Let your spirit capture all the pictures that you need to fulfill your heart's desire.

  Sometimes we try to capture the strangest moments in our life...

(I never understood how people can pick up crabs and carry them around. As you can see R has no problem with them and during the course of the day she picked up other strange creatures for her sister to take pictures of. We had so much fun that day, I hope to remember it for as long as I can manage to.)
