Just One Moment

It takes only one moment. For life or death, for love or hate, for faithfulness or betrayal.
And that one moment can bring about so much change, and your life will never again be the same.

Upon hearing that the resultant tsuanmis of the underwater earthquake reached the South Indian coast, my first thoughts went to my family residing there. There is a great sigh of relief knowing that the people you love are out of harm's way. For it takes only that one catastrophic moment for them to be swept away, in this case quite literally, from your life.

One moment.

It decides whether you will be hit by a car and die, cheat on your boyfriend or girlfriend, slip down a flight of stairs and break your leg, catch a train, or be swept away by a tsunami.

Just one moment.
