The Moment
Of all the numbers I think One is my favorite. Some would think it a lonely number. Standing at the beginning of an endless line, yet infinite emptiness on one side. Every other number surrounded by like kind. But One stands different. Maybe that’s what I like about One. One moment. One smile. One encounter. Can change everything. One Promise made true. One child born. One first kiss. One step. The first step. It can change everything.
