DON’T MISS THE MOMENT.
Enjoy the little things
I just read what I thought was a very powerful statement: “enjoy the moments before they become memories”. It’s not that this is a new concept; it’s just worded in a way that I reacted differently to. Every day we make memories, that goes without saying, but have we really enjoyed those moments before they become memories?
Some of us are task masters, meaning we get through our days accomplishing and moving on to the next action, and I am reflecting on whether we may be missing out on some of the joy… in the moment. Even though some of our actions are on repeat, there is ample opportunity to focus on the “doing” of the action and being really present. There is joy to be had, even in the mundane, if only we recognize the beauty in these everyday moments.
The wisdom ring by Treeline Collective speaks to the idea that, from trees, we learn to measure days by sunrises and sunsets—not hours or minutes—and to surrender to life's mystery, waking up to its beauty instead.
From Pyrrha Designs, I have chosen the Free Spirited talisman: the swallow pictured on this talisman is symbolic of a free spirit, unfettered by social conventions.
It is a reminder to stay spontaneous and open to new experiences.
Now that we are in the moment of winter, how about some winter boots?
The Jenna boot by Montreal’s Nex Grip is tall for deep snow, is waterproof, and has a built-in ice cleat in the heel – now you will be ready for winter!
Lastly, this week are some of the stunning jewellery designs by Pursuits.
The Veve necklace and the Reve hook earring are so unique and beautiful.
Architectural in design, these pieces will add a touch of class and distinction to an everyday outfit.
