A few nights ago, as I was scrolling aimlessly through my Twitter feed, I came across a video that had me awestruck, enthralled, and at a loss for words. The 58 second video captures a large group of students gathered on the lawn outside their teacher's home, singing gospel music as he listens and watches through his window.

Though being just short of a minute long, the video withdrew the deepest of emotions, leaving me with the soggiest eyes and endless sniffles. Something about the connection between the students and teacher--the way he sang along with their words and the way they looked up to him with the most moving expressions--held me captive and speechless.

It is moments like these that teach us to cherish every moment we have and appreciate those we spend these moments with.
