Could the day have started better ?? No, I don´t think so! I woke up to this wonderfull salut from my adorable nephew who apparently has named this Saturday for Spring cleaning day. Ih that cute bandit ♥

Have a super Spring Saturday

I am an avid fan of Sex and the City and I can never have enough of Sex and the City quotes. Carrie Bradshaw SATC is known from giving some of the best best words of wisdom quotes regarding love and life; and here below you can read  my two favorites…

“Maybe mistakes are what make our fate… without them what would shape our lives? Maybe if we had never veered off course we wouldn’t fall in love, have babies, or be who we are. After all, things change, so do cities, people come into your life and they go. But it’s comforting to know that the ones you love are always in your heart… and if you’re very lucky, a plane ride away”

“Sometimes we need to stop analyzing the past, stop planning the future, stop figuring out precisely how we feel, stop deciding exactly what we want, and just see what happens.”

While I was reading the quotes above, I came to think about how come Carrie seems to get it always spot on, and in so many ways (even though SATC is some years old)? and if it’s not in the words of wisdom then it’s style and fashion, I´m in love with Carries opulent pearl necklaces, that she wears in the picture above!

I (and many others I think) feel that I can relate to these little quotes with words of wisdom. Quotes about living in the moment and about having the courage to feel, to follow your dream and to seek and follow the big love. How not to be afraid, and how not to be limited by national land-borders, and not to look back, but instead to look forward, and then it´s also about how important it is to live your life!

I remember that I was scared when I decided to move to Barcelona to live together with my Mr. Big, J. I felt that I had to leave every thing that I knew and loved behind me in Denmark, but I also knew that I couldn´t live my life with out him, and if worse came to worse I could just pack my stuff and go back home to Denmark again. But luckily that was unnecessary, because I have not regretted my choice about moving, not even once!

Of course I miss my family and friends back home a lot, but I have them constantly in my heart, so they are always with me, no matter where I am.

If I had not moved to Barcelona, then I would probably have worked my ass off at Copenhagen Rigs Hospital, constantly swearing and cursing about where I could find my prince on the white horse. Knowing that I missed out, big time, of my chance to create a beautiful future together with J. And I would definitely have regretted 110%, that I was too afraid to take the chance, the chance of moving beyond countries and borders, to live with my amazing cute and handsome prince on the white horse, J.

I can not even think the thought about what if…..?? Thank God I did it.

Here’s to you – take a chance and live the life while you can!

Cheasy I know, but true 🙂 !

Here is a few photos from the last days here in Barcelona.

I hope you had a great weekend so far and that you will enjoy your Sunday….

J and I are off for a little picnic to Montjuïc now, – Barcelona’s Montjuïc is a broad shallow hill / mountain, with a relatively flat top overlooking the harbour, to the southwest of the city centre, and it´s so pretty!!

Adiós 🙂

Happy Valentine’s Day all of you.
