A Year Later: Life Moves Fast — Don’t Miss the Moments

A quiet reminder to slow down, take the picture, and hold space for each other.

It’s been a wild year since this picture was taken — me, simply watching a baseball game. At the time, it was just another afternoon. But looking back now, it serves as a gentle reminder: take the pictures, enjoy the moments, because life has a way of shifting in the blink of an eye.

In the months that followed, my world changed. I’ve spent time in ICUs, watching both my daughter’s and my wife’s lives change in ways I could have never imagined. What started as “just another day” became the marker of a before and after.

Life moves fast.

Some days you’re not sure if you’re coming or going. But today, take a moment — really pause — and recognize where you are right now.

The person next to you in line might be celebrating the best news of their life… or holding it all together after something unimaginable. We don’t always know each other’s stories. But we can choose to be present, grateful, and kind.

Take the picture. Enjoy the moment. Because a year from now, it might mean more than you can imagine.
