Have you ever had one of THOSE moments?

[Dillinger]

I think you know what I mean.

One of those moments where it seems your whole future rests on what will happen next?

One of those moments when a single decision can change everything?

When you hold all possibilities in your hand and hope you are making the right decision not just for yourself but for everyone.

Or - perhaps one of those moments when your future lies in someone elses hands.

You know... one of THOSE moments?

 

[Epiphany]

Oh boy have I!

 

[MorgaineLaFay]

Duh.


Just kidding Darlin...and yes...*cough* a part of me is starting to feel that way.

 

[LukkyKnight]

You've been staring up from under the tree of knowledge again, eh?

 

[Ezarc]

I have had more then a few. I am always stagger by them later. That I just went for it or didn't. I don't try to second guess them.

 

[Avery_Chisholm]

at least once a day

 

[paganangel]

i'm having one right now. we all are.

every instant is another chance to do something. get off your ass. go out. meet someone of the opposite sex. write. paint. get into a fight. feel alive.

 

[Dillinger]

Yes... I agree, paganangel - every moment is a choice and a different future...

But, you have to admit, there are moments that stand out - moments when you can barely breathe for fear of what might or might not happen.

 

[Ms_Lilith]

sometimes.. and I stress about them.. but then sit back with a cup of chai latte.

maybe, but it seems i can hardly remeber exactly what i was so stressed over at the time, when i look back. it's never as big as we think. and less is always lost through the wrong decision than indecision. in my life, looking back, i don't regret what i've done, but only what i haven't.

Never say never.

There are moments I will always remember.

 

[BgMma]

Too often, lord knows it.

 

[Ljbonobo]

I think I'm living in one of those moments right now.

 

[Riles]

"Those" moments I chalk up to the greater percentage of the "human experience", and for those times, I try and handle that tremulous moment as I would any other...head on and standing behind my convictions.

 

[sunstruck]

I had oine yesterday. It is part of the reason the drinknikng of tonight happened an stuff. It sucked ass and I'm trying not to thing about it.

 

[PacificBlue]

I think in those moments it is important to remember two things...

1. Breathe. What an amazing gift "free will" is.

2. The only future you are really and truly responsible for is your own. (except in the case of young children)

I used to think that part of my future rested upon the choices others make and to some degree it might be true BUT I also think at times we give to much power away. Maybe because the decision seems to big and we don't want full responsiblity. Maybe because we can't quite wrap our mind around all the "what if's".

I find that it isn't usually the BIG things that change the direction of a life but the little things. It is unfortunate that we take for granted the little things way to often.

I hope that makes sense...

 

[islandman]

Yes, right now, as a matter of fact.

 

[ksmybuttons]

Buying a house.
Changing jobs.
Getting married.
Getting pregnant on purpose.

"What have I done??!!" is usually the question that I obsess over that lets me know that it was one of "those moment."

Been stuck in one for some time. I guess that is a series of moments, but I think I get what you mean, and I can relate. Eh, the only thing I know is I have no control ultimately over anything but my actions. That comforts me for now in a way.
