Moments that Mattered

sweet dreams,

how could I know

God's plan and the mystery

of breathing in and out?

Childhood - Youth - Young Adult - Adult

The span of our lives.

Within each segment are disparate, illustrative stories of routine, everyday occurrences. Insignificant at the time, they eventually proved to be life-altering in forming character, direction and inclination, and with awakened insight, pivotal in coming to a deeper sense of ourselves.

And yet, how often, if ever, do we assess or unravel these small moments, thinking them too trivial for permanent effect?

Reflection may transform our emotional history and make our lives more generous, and purposeful. Let us then consider the people and forces which have determined and shaped our fortunes. And let us find the significant connections that have brought us to this day.

Moments that mattered.

Read Moments that Mattered by Pamela Hull for her artist's eye and sensibilities,

and for the wisdom found in her elegant, quotable language. Her storytelling is a

pleasure for the imagination, compelling words that may reshape a lifetime of yesterdays.
