in the moment

Will you seize it?

When we stand at the threshold of a new and larger world, it helps to
be bathed in the moment, to show that yes, the realm of the possible is
indeed far vaster than we know, and no, we are not crazy for leaving
normal behind.

The moment is something that is impossible from one's current
understanding of reality and truth, but that becomes possible
from a new understanding.

The moment is more than an event: it is an invitation. It says, "The
universe is bigger than you thought it was." It invites us to step
into a larger world, in which new things are possible. The moment can
blow apart our world if we accept it. Indeed, sometimes we do not
accept it; sometimes we relegate it to the category of "that was
weird," an exception to life, and we preserve normalcy and think and
live as we always have, as if nothing had happened. When faced with
an event that defies our usual explanations, we discard the event to
preserve the explanation.
