We owned it in that very moment; the clear blue skies above, deep blue water of the Mediterranean dotted with pleasure craft, the warmth of the sun on our bodies, fresh sea air, the ground beneath our feet, the building that rose above us and...just everything; it was ours, our moment, and we were never giving it back.

Have you ever had one of those moments in which everything seemed to be right exactly where it needed to be and you were right where you wanted to be physically and emotionally? I have had many such moments and they come through design more than luck as we have always leaned towards creating our lives as we wish them to be rather than allow life to push and pull us where it wants. Some of those moments have held major significance to us in the present and into the future and some were simple moments in which we truly felt connected and engaged with ourselves, each other and our lives. We owned them all.
One such moment happened right here in this location you see in the image.
This place is called Villa Kerylos and it sits nestled between the Mediterranean and the hills in the region called the French Riviera.
Is it beautiful and interesting? Yes of course, we loved it there; however it will always be more than that for us as this moment, the day on which we were there, held a very significant moment for us and will live in our hearts and minds forever. We cannot look at the photographs without remembering what happened there and I believe that's how it should be for everyone when it comes to significant moments.
I don't believe one needs to travel to the French Riviera, or anywhere else, to have moments like I mentioned although it's a lovely place I urge you to visit. What happened there is besides the point as well - what's important is that it happened because life is far too precious not to live with significance.
Our lives have a used by date and most don't know when that is...that's why owning our lives, designing and creating them as we wish them to be, is most critical to achieving a best-life scenario; life can't always be amazing but it's always life and should be treated with respect and care by each of us that has it.
Have you had significant moments in which you felt deeply connected and engaged with your life and have you carried those moments forward? Do those moments come back to you in fond memories so you can enjoy them all over again?
You don't have to tell me about the significance itself and you don't have to comment at all if you don't want to, but should you wish to make a comment I'd be happy to read it and respond.
