Moments in Time

Each person’s life is just a sequence of personal and not-so-personal events in a time event determined by other people.

Dwight with Governor Mills Godwin 001 (2)

All of life is just moments in time

Experiences that stay forever in one’s mind

A childhood joy/trauma/ impression

The teacher who cared and made a difference

The first kiss //fireworks in your brain

Broken heart // pain of separation

Moments in time are all we have

A mosaic of color showing the whole

As we step back and look at the big picture

A wedding //the birth of a child

Stresses of life // work // love

Shape our lives // cementing tiles in place

Permanent pieces fixed in time and space

The death of a parent // loss of a spouse

Wonderful joy of grandchildren shouts

Good friends who come and go

Each adding a sparkle to the whole

Cemented together with love and compassion

Leaving our star on the walk of time

Change your sorrow in joy!

Coming closer to the end of the year
we best forget all the sad moments of the year
and take some extra time to remember the beautiful moments of the past few months.


Change your sorrow in joy!

Dutch version / Nederlandse versie > Verander uw verdriet in vreugde!
