I feel lucky to be the person I am today and that I have what I have and know whom I know. I guess I have done something right in the previous life to deserve it. I love life with all my might!

Today I am meeting two of my good friends. They are wonderful women that keep me sane and keep the stakes very high for me. They are so smart and beautiful inside out. I keep looking up to them. I am grateful for them!

Have a wonderful weekend, friends! And don't forget tomorrow all night we get to enjoy Nuit Blanche! I call it my Christmas! Merry Nuit Blanche, friends! Come out and enjoy it even for a quick moment. Choose one or two projects and go see it. You never know, you could find something to be grateful for.
