Last month, Sports Illustrated writer Richard Deitsch sent a tweet out to his followers on Twitter—asking them: “How many of you have a photograph of the single best moment of your life?”
His readers responded him by sending beautiful images accompanied with captions—explaining why they are considered the best moments of their lives.
Not only are the photos powerful and inspiring, but they also remind us of what’s really important in life.
Check some of them out below:
