“Every day, God gives us, as well as the sun, a moment when it is possible to change anything that is causing us unhappiness. The magic moment is the moment when a “yes” or a “no” can change our whole existence. Every day, we try to pretend that we do not see the moment, that it does not exist, that today is the same as yesterday and that tomorrow will be the same too.
However, anyone who pays close attention to his day will discover the magic moment. It might be hidden in the instant that we put the key in the door in the morning, in the moment of silence after supper, in the thousand and one things that appear to us to be the same.
“This moment exists, a moment in which all the strength of the stars flows through us and allows us to perform miracles.”
– Paulo Coelho
Thanks for this! And what a lovely still moment in this kitchen.
YES!
I love it.
another one to bring to the photo workshop and share. Thank you!
And – in this moment I’m saying YES to the chocolate cake I’m eating – and grinning with every bite!

Is that your kitchen?! Good gracious, what a beauty.
If Catherine’s comment means what I think it means, I’m even more excited now for June to get here than I was before.
Love it!
I adore you, I love you, I appreciate you.

Oooh what goodness! Thanks for this. I’ll be on the lookout for the moment the stars flow through me.
Are you teaching in June?
What a beautiful quote.
I can hear that song refrain in my head…I think I’ll be singing it all day. That’s a good thing!
I read this post yesterday and the idea totally stuck with me. Really powerful – thank you!
I adore this quote. Powerful!
Amen to that!
Thank YOU.
This is stellar and beautiful, Andrea.
I’m also quite fond of the breakfast nook.
And the green sippy cup on the table.
Andrea, you are such a gorgeous mamma. It lifted my spirits just seeing your lovely self-portrait. Congratulations and thank you for being you! And LOVE Paulo Coelho… more uplifting mojo:)
What a gorgeous space to have in your life!
Thank you for sharing such beautiful moments in your life. This photo makes me want to make time for tea and good, meaningful conversations with special people.
Special, very special!
The simplest things in life are the most special, this truth I’m beginning to learn.
Everyday.
Thank you, my very special friend and supermama!
