Living life to the full is all down to perception. It does not matter how old we are, the spirit is always young, adaptable and capable of being inspired, if we would only step back and allow it to be so.
In this short yet powerful Ted Talk, Isabel Allende presents a wonderful manifesto for life. With gentle humour she celebrates the benefits of becoming older: freedom; lightness; softness; spirituality. There is no shying away from the realities that can and will befall us all. Rather, Allende sums up a bountiful way of living which we can all adopt, regardless of our age.
She closes with an invitation to join her in a celebration of life – yes please! 🙂
“I intend to live passionately….I don’t have to prove anything any more…I say yes to life.”
This is such perfect timing, Liz. A wonderful TED talk 🙂

Good advice, living should be done and not regretted about at some distant time. That’s why I always go for four finger Kit Kats!
