Happy Birthday to You!
Today is a beautiful day, we are celebrating my niece Aurora's birthday!
I feel serene, and this has led me to reflect a bit on my current condition and, above all, on why I am setting certain goals for myself.
I've been talking a lot about financial freedom these days.
Before starting again with another frenzy of words, I would like to point out once again that the achievement of this goal will not be for me: "earn a lot of money", but rather, a: "regain full ownership of my time".
I have already said on other occasions that for me the most important currency is precisely time which only flows forward and no one can bring it back; once finished there is no euro, dollar or peso that can give us some more.
For me, having full power over one's time means, for example, enjoying this special day without worries or worries.
After getting up a little later because I wanted to get some more sleep, spend the morning gardening.
Allow me a good lunch with my wife and an afternoon "siesta"; after writing a bit and maybe reading something (obviously it's ok here on Hive heh heh), then getting ready to go to my brother's house to celebrate all together...
(I want to let you in on a little secret, today I'm behaving just like I just described, I'm doing things the same way because, besides visualizing what will be in the future, it's great exercise to savor it and start behaving the way you imagine 😉).
A nephew is the best gift your brother or sister can give you.

A perfect day in which to be able to do many things but, in any case, where time passes slowly and, if by chance something were to go wrong, no worries will be done tomorrow.
I think these last words of mine contain the core of the reflection; being able to afford to slow down, to enjoy every moment, savoring life without haste and without stressful thoughts, I believe is true wealth.
Being able to dedicate ourselves to what we like and are passionate about but also afford the luxury of being a bit bored, sensations that are worth much more than a hundred roll (here you can choose whether you want euros, dollars or any currency you prefer eh eh).
All of this becomes a real state of mind which, as far as I am concerned, would truly lead me to Nirvana.
Then when you are relaxed and serene, you enjoy special evenings like this one today, you enjoy them much more, you live them to the fullest; the mental state with which you present yourself to these appointments makes the difference and, if it is the one I have just described, it allows you to immerse yourself totally in the family atmosphere.
When all these situations occur and you are master of your time, the moment comes when it seems to stop, and it is this change of speed that in my opinion leads you to savor life to the fullest.
Well even if I haven't written much I have to stop, it's time to get all dressed up for my nephews, on this occasion, in addition to the birthday presents, we will exchange Christmas gifts with my brother's family (due to various vicissitudes we have distant parties)... so imagine a riot of toys in which the children will splash around happily!
Yes, I know, it's not very educational, but that's why mom and dad take care of it, who are quite strict... let uncles and uncles spoil their nephews a little, sometimes it's right, isn't it?
As always, if you like, you can leave all your thoughts, ideas and reflections in imperishable memory below... for me they are fundamental!
Hug you!
English is not my first language but I try, please forgive any errors.
How was the party?

She was a beautiful party, she turns 9 today.
