THE PERSON BEHIND THE PORTRAIT

In her own words

My Latin teacher in high school always said: “The most important thing in life is to respect other people”. I have taken that with me and try to live by it in my daily life – to respect that not everyone thinks the same as me or makes the same choices, and I have to respect that – that we are different and have different reasons for choosing the way we do. This quote by Albert Einstein is quite nice and also fits me well – I try to wear the big yes hat in everyday life, and I really believe that the energy you send out into the universe, you get back: There are only two ways to live life. One is as if nothing is a miracle. The other is as if everything is a miracle.
