Now is the moment

Each moment is a place you've never been

Mark Strand

How glib we are in stringing the moments of our lives together

Like so many beads

                                                         these crystalline moments

These many-faceted drops of time that collect like dew

To then become part of something else

Something bigger

Becoming our life

Each moment is a gift

Wear it well

and that's poetiquejustis

                                                     You saw me before I was born. 
                                            Every day of my life was recorded in your book.
                                  Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed.
                                                             Psalm 139:16
