    I can tell you that at 75 the inventing and reinventing of yourself continues. One day I'm a poet, the next a painter, the next a philosopher. Love yourself and do not care what others may think of you. Finally, don't drop out of life early. It's too much fun.

      Beautifully said Sally. We met someone yesterday who said that they want to celebrate every last day of their life on this beautiful planet! May we all find ways to do just that.

I will be investing lots of time at his website where gold nuggets of inspiration abound. You have given me many treasures though your channel, but this is one that just keeps on giving. I just increased my Patreon giving. Hopefully, as I am able, I will be adding more. Great investment in my heart and the hearts of many others. A gushing fountain of gratitude to all of you.

      @ReflectionsofLife  2 года назад +1

      We are quite often asked how we find these people to film with... they surround us all every day. It's about making the time to truly listen to each other, with open hearts and minds. And when we do that, the doorway to real connection is opened up and the magic flows. We all have a story to tell. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚

      Actually iam from A small village in skikkim which is in India. I studied mfa ( masters of fine arts) and i love fishing and iam a " Lepcha" a primitive tribe of my state sikkim..i have found the Green Renaissance videos very creative and genuine.... They drive me so close to life.. The narrative by the characters is so true and purely portrayed.. And the way it is shown... Iam in love with your work.... It is beyond praise....
      If I ever get to make my video it would be of " fishing and art".
      Thank you.
