"The beauty of life is that it bears fruit
long after life itself has come to an end." - Henri Nouwen I awoke
this morning in the gold light turning this way and that thinking for a moment it was one day like any other. I like to reflect on this picture every now and then. How vulnerable am I in my relationships?  I know
that you believe that you understand what you think I said, BUT I am not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant! I think it's the skill of living in the present that I have mastered in the last 25 years. It is the key to enjoying your life in full. Enjoying life doesn't mean being unreasonably excited all the time. On the contrary, as I became older I realized that the first step towards finding the joy of life was to accept reality openly and sincerely, accept everything as it is. Reality is not perfect. But it is important to face the truth. This attitude works wonders. By the way, speaking about joys, after sixty I fell in love with dancing."
