Pinnacle Moments

I recently found an old notebook from about 5 years ago and found a piece I wrote about the moments in our lives that completely change us and the direction we are heading in. When I wrote this, I was struggling a lot after having a huge change in my life which I might touch on in another post. I wanted to share this incase it could resonate with anyone else.

Life is always changing, evolving each minute, every second and we don’t even realise most of the time. In our life the majority of us get caught up in moments from the past and the ones we hope to come that we lose sight of the reality of our evolving lives and the present.

But there are moments that demand to be heard and those are the ones that will forever stay with us. Those are the moments that are the pinnacle parts that shape our lives.

Those pinnacle moments leave no doubt that your life is forever altered. Sometimes this is good and such a positive addition, others can be heartbreaking. It can mean a huge adjustment when trying to deal with your new reality. Some of those moments where always going to happen as it is the circle of life but nothing will be prepare you for the inevitable moment or the aftermath. There will always be regrets, guilts and wishes left unfulfilled because life isn’t perfect. There will always be something you should have said or could have done differently.

I am not going to lie, these moments can be hard to come to terms with but eventually you will need to learn how to live with it although I doubt you will ever forget.

Those moments will not define your life but will forever alter it, for better or worse, but what will define you is how you come out of those pinnacle moments.
