Selfies & SnapChats


We have so many capabilities at our fingertips, literally.  We can capture the here and now -- the very instants.  We can capture, and sometimes re-capture, save, and look back upon these moments.  Typically and obviously, we usually only capture the happy times.  The sad, mad, and hurt times are ones we would rather forget and leave behind. 

Aside from the stress and the problems, life is full of happy moments.  I think it is so sweet how we can save these moments in time.  I think it helps, or has the potential to, remind us of how sweet life is.  The gift of life is fragile and fleeting, and the smiles we wear or pass on are the monumental things in daily life.  It is the hope we have at every rising sun -- that our day will be fulfilling, productive, and happy.  If we could count the smiles we smile each day, how many would we have?

Do you remember yesterday's smiles and laughs?  Do you remember the ones you have already had today?

Capturing still moments in time is a blessing, and I cherish every selfie and snapchat that holds a place in my phone, and therefore my memory.  Because those pictures captured were once the very moment I was living in.
