Time stands still

It doesn’t get any better than this. Or in laymen terms: I am happy – Right here – Right now. I am grateful for friends, for the beautiful weather, wine and barbecued veggies, the Ocean and the sound of the waves, the smell of eucalyptus and I am most grateful of little boys’ kisses. IMG_6226

The wisps of clouds, the ocean breeze, the diffused white light. I am grateful for Conrad, who organized a surprise dinner with my dear friends, did all the preparations and then told me about it the morning of my birthday. This was the best birthday yet.

Time stood still many times in my life. That’s why I appear young still. Time stands still in nature, in front of the fire place, on walks with mom, talking with my parents in the kitchen in Galati, and mostly when I go on adventures with Conrad.
