Do not measure a year in its entirety
Whether it was good or bad,
But measure a year by the moments,
Moments that make you smile uncontrollably,
Moments that make you cry into your pillow,
Moments of awkward silence,
Moments of content silence.
Moments when you have butterflies in your stomach,
Moments when your heart breaks,
Moments of death and funerals,
Moments of life and weddings.
And the best moments
Are the moments that make you want to live them all over again.
