What is life if not a long series of very short moments? And what is Twitter if not an endless series of short moments captured in text? We can conclude from these musings that Twitter is the essence of life itself. It is the expression of the human experience. Don’t believe me? Just look at all these marvelous little Twitter tidbits.
Here are 12 tiny instants of beauty forever preserved in tweet form.

9. The daily grind
What is this “occasionally exercising” crap?
Can’t believe I just have to keep waking up, cleaning and feeding myself, talking to people and occasionally exercising every single day until I die…

6. Night rituals
“This is the best night ever.” – cat, probably
Went to bed early. How did that work out? Got up at 3 am to make eggs and ribbon dance with my cat.

They may not be the most important moments, but the ones that stick with us rarely are. Thank you Twitter for capturing our fleeting thoughts and preserving them. Also for letting me fight with everybody about politics at light speed, that’s fun too, I guess.
