THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH DEAR!!
Embrace <3
Firstly, congratulations! 🙂
I always love to read other bloggers’ answers because that’s a very nice way to know a little bit more about the person sitting on the other side of this blog! Thank you for all answers and I agree with you, Wile E Coyote is very cool! 😀
Thanks a lot Sandra!
Mine pleasure! I am very glad!
You are right, sometimes it is not so easy to have a precise idea about the real personality of who is writing … exactly like Wile E Coyote there are a sort ACME devices involved 😀
Grazie!
I’m motivated 🥰
It’s so great idea to learn each other better and closer
Claudia, you are amazing person. I appreciate your personality and intelligence. You remind me my mom, but unlike you, she loved to cook😄😄😄🥰
Good luck to you my dear friend. I’m so happy and lucky that I’ve met you.
God bless you and your family 🙏🏻❤
I deeply thank YOU dear Lela!
For me it is a huge honor to be compared to your mum <3
I will try to focus more on cooking in a way to deserve better.
I am so happy when you read and encourage me.
Embrace!
Scrolling through your blog I came across this post. You have an interesting questionnaire, Claudia. I will answer just these three questions:
DO YOU LIKE COFFEE?
Yes! A lot!
WHAT DO YOU LIKE READING MOST?
Russian classics, for example Tolstoy and Dostoyevsky.
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PLACE IN THE WORLD FOR YOU IS ….
Moscow.
Many thanks Olivia for your contribution!
Three pretty important questions, which surely say a lot about you!
I am delighted to read that you really like coffee.
Unfortunately I know Tolstoy less but I definitely want to make up for it, just as I think Dostoyevskj is never enough! So I will enjoy everything you teach me about them!
And about Moscow: unfortunately it is a world unknown to me so I thank the fate that brought me to meet you, and I hope to be able to slowly see Moscow through your eyes. Really thank you very much !!
You are welcome, Claudia. I hope you like Tolstoy’s novels. They are rather thick books. One needs patience to read them.
I will!
My list of books to read is long long long long looooooong!
But, you know … “who goes slow and steady wins” right?
True, Claudia. “Who goes slow and steady” surely wins.
This proverb comforts me and saves me! 😉
THANKS Olivia!
Yes, Claudia, it comforts me too. I prefer working slow and steady instead of going fast.
In this regard I will tell you that I am basically quite anxious and that I had and still have to work on myself. When my son was very young I learned to be happy to be able to complete even one thing a day, and even now every now and then I have to remind myself to focus on the moment without thinking about the after and above all without thinking about the future.
One of my teachers told me to take one little step each day. Instead of amassing a huge amount of hours, just one hour per subject each day.
I will always remember this good adivce. So I study one hour, write one hour, read one hour, walk outside for an hour, or do some cleaning, gardening, whatever. But the maximum is always one hour – not more;
Your teacher is really wise. Olivia thank you very much for sharing this teaching: I will treasure it and keep it in mind because it will surely help me get things done in one hour at a time as well!
