Moments of grace

[kellinator]

When you think about it, all we really have in life are moments of grace.

You know these moments. They're usually fleeting, always unexpected, but in their brief time they make you forget that you don't know what the hell the world is about.

Glancing out my window just in time to see a shooting star. Looking up in the sky in a place I don't know and immediately picking out Orion. Singing along badly with some song on the radio, getting caught by the guy in the car next to me, then the sudden exchange of grins as we realize we're both singing along with the same song.

Tell me about one of your moments of grace.

Having a student give you hell nearly all day.. then come up and tell you they are sorry... and they hope your night is better than the day they gave you.. and you realize that they did understand their own behavior (they couldn't stop it.. but they GOT it)

Getting a letter from a friend... telling you how much you did for them.. when you are feeling low and as if you have not done anything productive for most of your adult life.
