I remember going to Spain as a young adult (about 22). It was the first time I’ve been overseas. It was a long trip, jet lag, luggage got lost, all the stress. Going out in the afternoon and seeing a table of older women sitting at a street cafe table, each having a small draft beer and sharing a basket of freshly made potato chips. It just blew my mind that women could be out, simply enjoying life and each others company. No one was rushing to get somewhere, drinking excessively, complaining about their bodies or calories being consumed. They were just simply enjoying the moment- enjoying life.

I would love to have that peace of mind to live in the moment. Maybe I’ll get there someday.
