Today is my 88th birthday. You may wonder - how comes?! Is Laa really SO old?!;) Yes & No! Today is 88th annivarsary of my Latvia, today is our birthady! Im proud that I am a LATVIAN! And at such days you really appreciate how lucky you are that have a free, independent, democratic country to live in. Ofcourse, ofcourse - it's not ideal, faaaar from it, but it's an opportunity for me to make it better. Starting from today. Today I was watching relaying about people Latvia is proud of & honestly - I was crying! There are soooo many people who helps others: a teacher in "the middle of nowhere" who creates socially responsible little wonders - highly motivated & smart children, a school kid who saved life for a sinking girl in winter & many, many more. & never ask me why it is worth living here & being a Latvian!

Mūs dārgo Tēviju!"

Our dear Fatherland!"

Everything we do - it's all about LOVE!

My typically untypical Tuesday

As now Im kinda on vacation in AIESEC I have more free time for...being only with myself. So, the best way how to do it is to sleep when nobody else is disturbing, when you can relax completely.
Yesterday I slept for 12 hours ,went to my only lecture, met my friend Edmunds (thanks for givingsome hints ;) ) & again went to sleep.
What an amazing day!!!

p.s. Im not doing this more than once in several months though ;)

Has any of you ever experienced fear? I mean a REAL fear of losing people you care about. But only at such moments one can reach true friendship, true love, true passion. But why do people don't live each day taking it as a gift? Because lot of them including you haven't experienced that real fear - & that's why I'm really happy for you!
