The Moments That Define Us

"Embrace the small moments in life for one day you will look back and realize those were the greater moments. Life."

I do feel blessed, some days i wake up wondering and questioning the purpose of my existence. Since I hit the big 30 next year, the thought of it or rather the notion of turning 30 scares me. Maybe because at 30, we are expected to be in a marriage, planning to have children or in the midst of having one and doing the baby showers, starting a new home, blah.

Of course, it isn't happening in my situation. I used to be one of those girls, who was destined to be the first few in the clique to get married and have children. I've always been a girlfriend sort of girl, if you know what I mean. But life and love have the funniest way in working themselves out. So here I am.

Since my last post in July, so much has happened, every day something changes, something happens. I guess that's life, and before you know it, it's just gone with the wind. And just like that, i find myself needing to blog. It's my feeble attempt to keep the moments. To remember.

There have been a few moments.

A few weeks ago. We found ourselves. Maybe star-crossed lovers in a world too cruel, where temptations are entangled in obligations. We will never hold each other till the ends of the earth. But, he's my soul mate and me his.

A conversation last night struck me. In the midst of the intensity and all the rawness of it, the question of ethics or morals came up. What defines who we are. It was oddly stimulating. A moment.
