“Keep all special thoughts and memories for lifetimes to come. Share these keepsakes with others to inspire hope and build from the past, which can bridge to the future.”—Mattie Stepanek
It is easy to begin to think about “special thoughts and memories” this time of year. The holidays are a time for memories. Sometimes these are good memories. Sometimes these are bad memories. (Hopefully, these are mostly good.) Each season is an opportunity to make better memories.
The holidays are not the only time for memories. Special thoughts and memories are timeless. We can’t wait for special times. Carpe momento!
The best part of the holidays is sharing them with others. Mattie Stepanek was wise beyond his years. When he says “share these keepsakes with others to inspire hope and build from the past” he is speaking to us all. The present is the “bridge to the future”, so, cheesy as it sounds, but the best present this season is simply to be present.
Be your best today; be better tomorrow.
Carpe momento!
