I, myself, am called to be holy. To enter each moment into the possibility of that moment. But I stub my toe and I look away. I stub my soul when I become over attached – a little too interested in worthless distraction.

The moment fades without the requisite value to make the moment even register in my long term memory. But my failure is just as irreversible.
