βThe most beautiful things are not associated with money. They are memories and. Moments. If you donβt, celebrate those, they can pass you by.β Alek Wek
When you read this quote, what those it mean to you? When you reflect on the last 72hrs, how did you spend it, with whom did you spend time with, what was the ambience, how did you feel?
As you think about your answers⦠I will tell you about my 72hrs.
I lost someone who was very near to me a few days weeks ago. Iβm comforted because I know she is in the arms of our loving father in heaven.
I spent the past 72hrs congregating with family and friends gather around the living room of her beautiful home. We were looking over photos of the past celebrations throughout the decades of birthday parties, Christmas gatherings, weddings, anniversaries, etc. for hours we laughed, cried and shared all the milestones that involved these beautiful souls thatβs no longer with us. We gathered around the living room surrounded by photos, along with food and beverages.
We departed with joy and gratitude for the privilege of sharing life moments with each other and our departed loved ones.
Iβm grateful for the privilege to create events that will turn into memories that will last a lifetime. Like Mr. Wek says in his quote, βthe memories are moments.β
As you go about living your life for the rest of 2024, create any memories by celebrating the moments.
