Love life


Even though I am not particularly 'old', I do feel that I have a lot of life experience, which makes me feel like an old soul and it sometimes feels like I've been living for an eternity. 

It's always a good reminder to live every day to its fullest, which I don't do enough and a bit scary because life goes by so quickly. Loving your life and enjoying every day will mean different things for each person, and for me, it means the following: 
  1. Enjoying the little moments in life - taking the time to enjoy the warm sun on your face, a nice cup of warm tea, spending time with loved-ones. It's all about the small moments that  you have to consciously pause and enjoy.
  2. Taking opportunities that come into your life, whether experiences like travelling or learning a new skill, or learning from a conversation with a complete stranger. Growth is in everything that you do.
  3. Taking time for yourself doing what you love doing and taking care of your mind, body and soul.
  4. Strive to be the best that you can be. Challenge yourself at least once a day by doing something that scares you or that you don't like. Push through negative thoughts because the rewards will be worth it. 
  5. Find your passion and work on it every day.

What do you think? Are there things that you do on a regular basis to love your life more?

Welcome to our crazy world...


True friendship withstands the tests of time and distance, and this friendship is a proof of that.

After a decade of being friends, and not living on the same continent for the last couple of years, this blog is our way to stay in touch in a fun and different way. To replace our weekly coffee dates or shopping trips, we are going to share these activities in this blog. In other words, you are in a way joining our circle of friends, with the hopes that you will laugh and cry with us, have fun with us, but most importantly, share with us our love for life and everything that is beautiful in it!
