A Moment in Time

It's funny how one moment in your life can change everything. Heard of a person who choked on some food. The blockage was cleared, but the oxygen supply to her brain was cut off long enough to cause permanent brain damage. One short moment, and her life, and all those connected to her changed.

Everything before that moment was fine. Suddenly, everything was different. I suppose we think about this more often when the changing event is something tragic or sad. But it happens with good things, too--wining the lottery is a case in point.

Not sure if there is a moral in all this, but it makes me realize that I should savour each moment for I never know when things will change for better or worse, but certainly for good.
