Moments



A women was walking alone along a tree lined trail one morning, the sun was shinning brightly, you could hear the fresh snow crunching under foot. It was winter and the opportunity to spend some time in the woods with herself could not be passed up. As she walked she came upon an old man wrapped in a blanket sitting on the side of the trail. Concerned she asked if there was anything she could do to assist, the answer that came was simply a "no". Curious as to what the old man could possibly be doing she asked "why are you sitting here? What are you looking at? the old man answered, "I am looking at the trees". The women turned around and looked in the direction the man was staring, there were snow covered tree's, a blue sky, both which stood out against the fresh fallen white snow. She said to the old man, "it is rather beautiful but I am sure there are trees you can look at where you could be more comfortable" The old man replied "but not those trees, not in this moment". Feeling that the old man wanted to be left alone she started to walk away, but after a few steps, her curiosity driving her, she turned and asked "but why those tree's, why that moment?" But the old man was gone.............

Time goes by quickly......but moments will last forever, choose them and cherish them often.................


Till next time................
