long and thriving life, we are only guaranteed one moment at a time. So, cherish the moments for what they are. Let go of insignificant details, because I guarantee the father of this family would give absolutely everything to have the daily stressors of fighting children aA horrific tragedy happened the other day that once again struck a chord within me. A couple and their two vibrant and beautiful children were hit by a reckless drunk driver as they were enjoying a night of hot cocoa and fun. They were enjoying the evening, when in an instant the children and mother were tragically killed. It is difficult if not impossible to imagine what the father is going through. It should never take something so heart-wrenching to open your own eyes, but in the least you can turn this tragedy to something positive in your own life. Allowing a senseless act to be just that, senseless and overwhelming, there is nothing good that would come from that. If however, this tragedy is a catalyst to enjoy the moment more, to hug your children more often, to let go of insignificant details in your life, then maybe, just maybe there is some light that was created from something so unimaginable. Don't disregard this tragedy and continue your life 'as is', take it to heart and commit to this family that you will better your own life from their loss. No one is guaranteed a long and thriving life, we are only guaranteed one moment at a time. So, cherish the moments for what they are.

ACTION STEPS FOR THE WEEK:

1. Be in the moment

This week commit to living your life in the moment. No matter what activity you are involved in, embrace it fully. If you are talking with your children, give them your undivided attention.

This tragedy and this time of year always pushes you to remember what you are grateful for in your life.

Beginning this gratitude journal will keep you grounded and focused on what really matters in your life.

3. Acts of kindness
