The first half of life consists of the capacity to enjoy without the chance; the last half consists of the chance without the capacity.

One of my resolutions for this year was to spend a lot of time with children and senior people.
And I feel like it's going to be the only resolution I won't fail on ( well, beside getting rid of all the situations/ people/ things that do not contribute to my personal development and well-being.)
I spend a lot of time with my 1 year old niece, playing with her, and above everything observing her, and it's simply fascinating. I 'm learning a lot of things like how to live in the present, how to seek the miracle in everything and everyone surrounding me, how to smile after I cry , how to share, forget, forgive, create and so much more.
I'm also currently working on a " project " with my 83 year old grand mother. I asked her to tell me about her life and life in general; the lessons she learned and her advices on how to live purposely. All I have to say is that I'm loving the experience so far !!!! I tape record her and I might write a book out of it :)
