Does anyone there have the secret to enjoy a healthy and beautiful life? When I say healthy, I don’t mean boring! I mean enjoy a life full of happiness, smiles, parties, companionship, friends, love, passion, lust, all these things…
I wonder sometimes if I enjoy life as much as I should, I wonder if I actually LIVE my life it all.
I envy (in a positive way) those people who are so young (or at least my age) and they’ve been in so many different places in the world, or they are passionate about a particular sport, or a band, a festival or whatever. I’m so scared sometimes to turn 40 and say that I haven’t done much with my life.
It’s funny though as I left home when I was 18 years old and I’ve been living in a different country for four-and-a-half years. I’m sure there will be people saying that I have done heaps already. But you know when you look back and you don’t have that many stories to tell?
I’m so scared that one day, when I have my kids, and they ask my friends “what was mom like when she was young?” And they go like: “well, don’t really have much to say…” That’s a scary thought!
So, how do I enjoy life? Bettina and I always talk about how important it is for someone to have passions, and that is what makes a person be interesting. But what are my passions? What am I crazy about? I think that after all, although I always try to be everywhere, doing everything, I ended up doing nothing and just living one day after the other…
I don’t know! I should be grateful for my life (and I guess I’m), but I just wish I could live my dreams, make them happen. Do you enjoy your life?

I love my life, and I think you should love yours too, babe. You know what I think about this- I think you've done amazingly well for yourself. It sounds almost strange how you say that you left your home country at 18 and lived in two different countries over the last five years, yet you think you haven't done anything? Get with the program, sweetie! You've completed a language based university degree in a language that you barely spoke a few years ago, for God's sake. You're smart, beautiful, funny, talented, caring and original. You've got it going on babe.
