Oh, and seeing Rembrandt’s paintings in Holland, were a moment of godliness.

1. going overseas for the first time
2. going to NY for the first time

Lovely post! This reminds me of a question I heard last year that really got me thinking (though I can’t remember where I heard it): “What are the seven most amazing things your eyes have seen? Describe the places, objects, people or accomplishments in your life that are the most meaningful and life-affirming experiences of your existence.”

Was this photo by any chance taken outside the Rodin Museum?
I too love this post. Sometimes it’s too easy to get so caught up in everything else that you forget to recognize and appreciate those moments.

I lived alone in California last summer doing an internship and could seriously feel myself growing up.

Hi Abbey. This is my first time commenting on your site, but I’ve been a reader for a long time. This post was really so wonderful, thanks for sharing.

lots of moments with my son. when I first saw his adorable face breathing – crying – living after a terrifying week in the hospital hoping he would survive being born 7 weeks early (he did). playing, talking, watching him grow…its all magical.

charming, charming and lovely! Thank you so much for this post. Will finishing your thesis be one of yours!? I still remember strutting my stuff so happily past Boston Common to deliver my thesis presentation in grad school. That would definitely be one of my moments! The other will require more thought. Interesting and fun exercise.

What a lovely post, Abbey. And that article is chock-a-block full of glorious (and beautifully documented – such writing!) remembrances. (Marie Curie’s courage and fortitude are ongoing inspirations to me. That quote is worth committing to memory.)

We’re cheering you on to the finish line!
