"I would argue that nothing makes life more meaningful than a realization that every moment of consciousness is a precious gift."
I felt that this quote confirmed some of what I believe to be true. As a domestic violence advocate, this quote resonated with me because I have worked first hand with many people who have experienced some of the most difficult things that life could have thrown at them, and at the end of the day they're still able to smile. Their wounds may not be healed, but they are able to find the strength to move forward.
This quote resonates quite a bit with me as well. I truly believe that living in the moment can be very important to one's happiness. Being impacted by past memories is unavoidable for some people, but I think that the best thing to do is enjoy the present and all it offers. Looking to the future and the opportunity it holds is important to me as well, but often one spends more time worrying about the future than looking forwards to it. Being able to appreciate the present truly is a gift.
