I can't remember what thread it was, but I was talking about how I sometimes get annoyed when people tell me to "enjoy every moment"... Here is an article that articulates what is annoying about it so perfectly!

@Rubies shared that article, too! I know it's an annoying saying but gosh, sometimes it is true. I have to bite my tongue and not say it to my friends with kids younger than mine. Or my pregnant friends. Or my friends without any kids at all. LOL.

I say it too... but I really liked the discussion of Chronos vs Kairos. I'll think about "every moment" differently now
