Nina told:

My life cycle changes every day...


Feeling life when I wake up...


The morning begins... my body pulls in all directions...


How am I feeling... happy... feeling good...


Love washes over me as I think about a new day...


I open my phone... read... Listen to the news...


Paint my nails red... smile at how pretty they look


Put on my new earrings...


Think about the new day...


It's going to be good...


Stand in front of the bathroom mirror...


Put on my make-up...


Paint my lips red...


Fix my hair... blow it up...


it turned out so nice...


it's summer... I'll wear my purple dress today...


black belt... my new stylish handbag...


everything's ready...


a new morning... one day older...


I feel more beautiful every day...


a new day... with new encounters...


I receive so much love...


I give a lot of love...


my older self... reshaped every day...


becoming the person I want to be... now an older woman


feel a connection with everyone I meet... together we shape the future...


my narrow view has been replaced by a new, open, beautiful view...


life is LOVE...
