In their book "The Power of Moments," authors Chip Heath and Dan Heath study the science behind these pivotal moments and the reasons why they have such a profound effect on our lives. They point out that defining moments are made up of four essential components: elevation, understanding, pride, and connection.
A quiet morning. I love it. How about you?
A hug from someone you love. I am sure you feel the same.
Sipping a warm cup of coffee or tea. Of course, I prefer coffee more than tea.
Reading a few pages in one of those good books on your bookshelf. I miss reading many more.
A child's laughter. My one-year-old grandchild is the best example.
Someone special wanting your attention. I am already 71, but it's always amazing how many people wait for me every morning.
What do you say is the best moment in life? - “That was my happiest moment” is better usage. It means to say that you enjoyed that mentioned moment, very much. It is one which makes you happy and cannot be forgotten in your life. What was that "one big moment," a turning point, that changed your life?
Special moments; breath-taking feats, outstanding accomplishments, universally recognised excellence. The moments that matter happen beyond analysis; they just occur. Special moments are everywhere, always; millions of them waiting to happen – and the more you let go, the less you look, the more you see.
Moments are significant as they help us connect with others. Every shared moment, whether it's a conversation, a hug, or an experience, presents an opportunity to form a bond with another person. These bonds are what make life meaningful and help us endure challenging times.
