Words fail in expressing the gratitude I have for this video. I'm 68 and frightened of what lies ahead for me. I can see now that there's nothing to be afraid of.
It’s so enjoyable to see an elder who looks like an elder and speaks like an elder. So superior to those elders who spend all their time and effort trying to be and look young.
A bell tolled inside me when I read your words. Such an astute remark! Elders must be revered for their accumulated wisdom & light, which is like a shining beacon to us all; guiding us on our lifepath.
May we all come to know such peace, serenity, and contentment, and may we all recognise the light that we are. May we celebrate our lives, and be thankful.😊
Like where we belong❤. And we are here for a reason, not by chance. Each one of us here there is something we need from these videos, something we connect to❤❤️❤️❤️
These are our true role models, our heroes, our teachers ! They should permeate the media with their wisdom and grace and replace the face of what we call celebrity!
At 75, I really appreciate her wise words. I have also reached the conclusion that we are all the same. And different. We are made up of atoms, minerals, etc etc. The universe is pretty much made out of the same basics, so I see myself as part of the One, as we all are. I agree with: "it's all such a mystery. I'm grateful; not trying to figure things out, but be in awe."
The possibility that one can be so lucid, vital, fit and physically/mentally able at that age, when you're nearing the end of life, is equally comforting and terrifying
I agree....my childhood was rough. Now in my 70's, life is precious, happy, and healthier than my youth! May she live into the next century and beyond. May all of us live as fully as possible.
Thank you for your kind wishes for Dot and all of us. Nice that you are happier and healthy now, enjoy every new day. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
"Go slow.... then you'll know where to seek the truth when to speak your truth from your heart. Go slow.... then you'll know that the only way to enjoy this day is right now." Beautiful. ❤🦋🌷
Absolutely! It's also true that when life throws you a curveball, all you really have is your light. And when everything is taken ftom you, all you have left is your Heart,.Light, and Spirit. That's when the real work begins... Cultivate love & compassion to ease the suffering of others, and you will find a life filled with Love🙏
As she spoke I was full of curiosity about her. Your film didn't show her hobbies or cooking, but I did love seeing her exercise. However, her advice to 'Go slow' for longevity was so simple yet it really resonated with me. I quit an unsustainable career at 53 and moved to a cottage in the woods near a sweet village. I'm 72 now and when she said 'Go slow' I breathed a sigh of agreement. I've been slow living for nearly twenty years and have no health problems yet. What gets me out of bed when it feels like everyone in my circle of intimates is suffering is my piano, which I started learning to play when I was 66.
I do agree that living in the moment,going slow is good for one. Playing piano or any instrument is a wonderful solace, whether you’re experienced or beginning--you have to be in the moment and not think of anything else. It’s been mine for many ,many years.
Lovely message, glad her words resonated with you. Thank you for sharing a bit about your own life experiences, wonderful that you are healthy and enjoy 'going slowly'. Wishing you many more happy and content years, playing music, etc. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you for sharing the thought. We grow up and become adults but it's wonderful if the child within us never dies. If we can sometimes just be carefree, etc. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
One day my adult daughter and I were talking about aging and I said to her ‘I feel like I’m 7’ and then she replied ‘well I feel like I’m 5’. And we have kept it going all these years. She’ll ask me something like - ‘well why did you do that’? And I’ll reply ‘because I’m 7’ and then we laugh. We should all keep that child like wonder through our golden years and beyond.
This wise woman has gone beyond space and time, I have no doubt that at the moment of her departure, she will be in peace and joy and gratitude and in owe! And she will become light! ❤❤❤❤
She already is in a state of grace, peace and shines brightly. ✨ It comes through so sweetly, humbly, playfully. She has gone beyond time. Speaking from freedom itself. Awe and wonder. Beginners mind. Thank you so much for sharing. Big smile happening here. 🥰🙏🇦🇺
She has certainly NOT gone beyond space and time ! She lives in time (96 yrs) and Takes up space ! She's just a person - not a Saint And very very fortunate that her Body has not broken down like Most of ours !
My mom lived to almost 103. One of 13 Italian children. She ate right and kept positive. She had her marbles and her humor at the end. I miss her so much. I will see her again in the new world.
@ReflectionsofLife keep doing what you are doing. It is refreshing to have life-affirming content at a time when words are "hurled" for the sole purpose of injuring others. Thank you for leading us to the light!
My grandmother lived to 100 and was an inspiration to me. Like this lady, she kept her mind clear, rejoiced in every little opportunity for living and was grateful. I miss her dearly, my Rosetta
Both such interesting comments that leave food for thought. Thanks for sharing guys. And we're glad that you both enjoyed her story. Hugs. Justine and Michael. x

Did anyone else smile, cry, or laugh when watching this? I felt all that. What a wonderful being who knows what life is about. Key is being grateful. While she informs us to "take it slow," my 96 y.o granny told me to "never stop moving." She had this little picture in her kitchen that said "Don't wait for your ship to sail in, swim out after it." In terms of her advice, I know its truth because when we stop moving either physically or mentally, it is a form of giving up. Our bowels shut down, our muscles atrophy, we are prone to pneumonia, and mental lethargy, and so much more. In some ways this woman reminds me of Granny.
Touching that her message spoke to you so deeply. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I'm definitely in awe of Dot....such a peaceful presence, a beautiful smile and eyes that light up with joy. I can feel she's very much in the present moment. Blessings.
I want to scoop up the child version of this woman and assure her that she’s amazing and wonderful. Such beautiful insight. “Everywhere I look, I see another little version of myself.” ❤
The graceful lady showed us a wise perspective on the world: we are all the same, yet different. Stay curious and go slow, and you'll see just how unique and beautiful the world is.
I can't find the words to fully express my love and gratitude for your labor of Love. You and Dot are the true Lightworkers here on a rather dark planet. l light a flickering candle in honor of knowing people like you are Here, Now❣️ 🤍✨️💖✨️🕊
Not only is her voice amazing and beautiful, but I admire how she keeps herself in such great shape. I’m 70. I hope if God lets me live to be her age, I want to be like her. Bless you beautiful.
At 95, you have reinforced my childhood pledge never to lose my curiosity and sense of wonder. I feel that we are kindred spirits, each of us in our own orbit, yet moving together. Thank you so much for this beautiful video.
I watch this having just lost my mum at 89 so in her 90th year. They look very similar, quite simply beautiful . My mum had dementia which meant she very happily lived in the present moment. She lived with me for her last 6 years and she taught me to slow down. To watch the birds, to notice the trees or the flowers. She was grateful for every day. We can learn so much from the elderly. And it hurts when they leave.
I was, for years, drawn toward the static idea of "spiritual freedom". It was a catch-phrase being tossed around in the 70's & after, & I gravitated toward that 3-D "freedom" idea but never reached it. The wording "spiritual liberation" is an action term (to me) that my heart had never contemplated but that I had always needed to recognize and to act upon to help me fulfill my purpose in living the slow-life to my current age of 92. How grateful I am to find it sequestered here in a beautifully simple comment in this awesome realm of beings opening their hearts so comfortably. Thank you, Peter, for providing me a key piece of terminology to complete my life's continually curious, still-active years. 🥰
My grandmother was 97 when she was hit by a door at the nursing home. It broke her hip, dad did not sue and would not hear of it. She was a little Italian lady who had dementia for ten years. My mother also had dementia for ten years, she passed at 85. Daddy had his left eyeball replaced with a marble, he is 87. I cannot imagine being that old, but I did not imagine being in my 60's either. She's right on and groovy. God bless her ❤️🔥✨️
Every moment for this grand old lady is special and precious....She does not regret growing old because she knows that it is a privilege not everyone has..She is very courageous and her Unique Spirit continues to evolve....God Bless her.....
Thanks for seeing the beauty in the words that she shares with us. She really is a remarkable woman and her message has inspired so many around the world. Hugs to you. Justine and Michael. x
I'm 60 years old and I want to be like this wonderful being when I grow up! She is a perfect example of the reason our elders used to be held in such respect. She has more mobility at her age than I do now at mine - and what a clear mind and voice! Her energy - to go out and play! I hope I can be at least some semblance of this as I get older. What a treasure she is! ❤
Determination naturually real food.being outside in touch with nature ,a kind heart,laughing every day looking at the sky trees weare part of tge universe see it love it be part of it tre hugging ,feet grounding . If im alive today ive everything to be happy about to set my course in anyway i need to
I feel like these are some of the most important videos on the internet. We don't receive enough wisdom from our elders anymore. There is so much to learn from them, so much to be inspired and uplifted by. The disintegration of our generations saddens me. Thank you for sharing people like Dot with us.
You are welcome. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, we are truly grateful that listening to Dot's story meant so much to you. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
I turned 81 this year. I recently received word that my college roommate died this year. Seems like just yesterday that we were a couple of 18 year old kids starting out in life. A life is such a blink of an eye. Looking back on my long life I would suggest two worthy goals to strive for in a well-lived life. One is to be a good listener. And two is to be a good "noticer". When I wake up each morning, I say to myself "Yay! I still exist. I get another day of conscious awareness. I get another day of hundreds of thoughts to enjoy" Death doesn't scare me because when my brain dies, I won't know I'm dead, just like all the billions of years before I was born..
It sounds like she reinvented her childhood, reclaimed her inner child and her authentic self. Her wish of dying in awe will come true, because the way in which we live is the same as when we die. As a bedside companion for Hospice, I learned that these kind of people just surrender to death and die in a very dignified way, as if knowing they manifested all the love and light, while on earth! Thanks for such a beautiful video.
A beautiful message - thanks for sharing of your experiences and also for the work that you do to assist those in their final chapter - such powerful and important work. Sending love. Justine and Michael x
@@evesperspective7662 I am 55 now and really having anxiety about aging. Can you give me words of encouragement. I am somewhat living in anticipatory fear right now. After losing my beloved parents I am feeling lost and I know they would want me doing well.
Thank you, She doesn’t mention anyone else, needing an abundance of relationships, all the societal things… She is very awakened, this is “awe”some. We are specks of dust and specks of light, star children ❤
Dot certain does have a very active social life, and is surrounded by a community of people who love, respect and care for her. She really is a remarkable woman, and we're glad that you enjoyed her story. Hugs. Justine and Michael x
It so beautiful to see a 96 year old women still know how do everything at that age and have a sharp mine. May god bless you whit health and strength amen🙏🏼
I work with elders who have dementia and Alzheimer's. I treasure every moment with them. Their precious memories that remain are so amazing and i am privileged to learn about their lives, desires, hopes and fears. ❤
I teach Chair Yoga to those with Alzheimer’s (early stages but honestly some are pretty progressed). We make sure to have laughs every session no matter what. I appreciate every moment with them!
What a lovely person this woman is. In good shape, of sound mind & aware. And shes grateful to be doing so well. To be aware & in awe at any age, is something to be thankful for. I am.
So true - we have so much to learn from each other. And that's we'll continue to do with these films - sharing messages of hope and inspiration, shining more light out into the world. Thanks for being on this journey with us. Justine and Michael. 💚
What an exceptional and inspirational human being. I am so moved by her grace and the intelligence she uses to live her best life at this stage of her journey. Thank you for this message of wisdom from this beautiful soul. 🙏✨💛
She got me, when she said that she's like the compost pile, on her way out. It's touching and refreshing, to hear someone talk about the death that is near, it's so taboo in American culture, hardly anyone talks about leaving. Wonderful, I don't know how I landed here but I'm glad I did.
We're taught to fear death in western society,our fears can make a lot of money for others who really don't care about our well being. Listen to your own voice, about everything.
This lady reminds me so much of my mother who lived a full life for 93 years on this wonderful earth. How wonderful to be looking and sounding like this at 96! I can only hope to live happily that long.
What a beautiful human being, I loved every second of watching and listening to this lady, smiling, enjoying and feeling happy in her presence ❤😊🎶🍀💞🕊️☀️🥰😍🤗🌸💖💝💙💚
I feel inlove with life again. My heart is so happy hearing all the words coming out from her mouth. So so genuine. May God bless her thousand folds! ❤
Does anyone else wish she was your neighbor? 🌻❤️
Yes!
And friend
Friend, neighbor and mentor
Yes please😊

She is the clearest and most vital 95 year old I've ever seen. Not to mention beautiful.

She is awakened. She knows who she really is. I hope she will keep on shining her light. ❤❤❤
Yes. She closes her eyes for the last time, takes her last breath and when she opens her eyes again, she is in heaven.
Beautiful, thank you for watching. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Amen 🙏🏾
Totally awakened! ❤
My grandfather always said, "Go slow, you'll get there faster. " The older I get, the more I see the truth in it. Wish I had listened sooner.
Nice that her message resonated with you, may her words inspire you every day. Warmest wishes, Justine and Michael. 💚
...when you in hurry, go slowly...so I know this...😊
It’s so enjoyable to see an elder who looks like an elder and speaks like an elder. So superior to those elders who spend all their time and effort trying to be and look young.
But they also have their story. Same, same and different.
Coherence, thats it. I aprecciate the same as you.
Comparison is the thief of joy
Touching words, something to ponder on. So glad this video resonated so much with you. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
She’s amazing for her age. I. Seventy and I hope to be as good as she is mentally and spiritually and physically
Historically elders have been revered for their wisdom and heart and experience. Time for us to revive that ethic...
Yes. This definitely needs to be revived.
Your words go deep, much to ponder on. Thank you for sharing and reminding us. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Couldn’t agree more. 🙏🏽
A bell tolled inside me when I read your words.
Such an astute remark!
Elders must be revered for their accumulated wisdom & light, which is like a shining beacon to us all; guiding us on our lifepath.
Its way past time to revive her wisdom! ☀️💖🙏
May we all come to know such peace, serenity, and contentment, and may we all recognise the light that we are. May we celebrate our lives, and be thankful.😊
Amen ❤🙏🏻
I hear how she lived through so much struggles. Second childhood- perfect wisdom
Well said!
Beautiful words and blessings for us all - thank you for sharing 💚
Amen to that
Wow! No cell phone in her hand. No ego. Just presence and astute awareness. She gets it.
Nice that this impressed you so much. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚

Our pleasure. So happy you appreciated her story. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Did anyone else smile, cry, or laugh when watching this? I felt all that. What a wonderful being who knows what life is about. Key is being grateful. While she informs us to "take it slow," my 96 y.o granny told me to "never stop moving." She had this little picture in her kitchen that said "Don't wait for your ship to sail in, swim out after it." In terms of her advice, I know its truth because when we stop moving either physically or mentally, it is a form of giving up. Our bowels shut down, our muscles atrophy, we are prone to pneumonia, and mental lethargy, and so much more. In some ways this woman reminds me of Granny.
Thank you 🙏
Touching that her message spoke to you so deeply. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Nah, I was scowling throughout it. Hehe jk, I certainly did smile. 😊
To put it simply, as my mother used to tell me, use it or lose it!
I’m inspired to live like this now….at 57….rather then later when I’m 94. Thank you for the wisdom, strength and beauty.
Wonderful that her story inspired you so much. Enjoy life every day. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Absolutely!
Absolutely agree! I am 53 now😂❤❤❤
@@m.alcholish9401You are still so very young
I’m 57 and feel the same.
I'm definitely in awe of Dot....such a peaceful presence, a beautiful smile and eyes that light up with joy. I can feel she's very much in the present moment. Blessings.
Beautiful words. So happy you enjoyed the video. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
❤so beautiful
Listening to her this morning before I start my day was the best choice I’ve made this year.
That is so wonderful. We trust you had a super day. Warmest wishes, Justine and Michael. 💚
Good morning to you! We are indeed the same. Much love from Vermont!
Love this grandma, I am 57 years old, no family no children. I watch this many times.Respect, love from Thailand.
Such kind and touching words. Glad her story meant so much to you. Sending you warmest of hugs from South Africa, Justine and Michael. 💚

This is the type of beautiful soul that everyone should have as a dear friend ❤️ ♥️ 💕
We agree! 💚
Blessed the ones who do have... 💜🙏
This lady is an international treasure. Looking forward to becoming 96 with wisdom and grace. Thank you for teaching us all about life in 12 minutes.😍
Wow, wonderful that her words meant so much to you, that they were inspiring. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I want to scoop up the child version of this woman and assure her that she’s amazing and wonderful. Such beautiful insight. “Everywhere I look, I see another little version of myself.” ❤
💚

I want to thank you, people who make this videos possible, I want to thank you for helping me, at 53, on how to grow old beautifully, thank you ❤
Beautiful. We are so happy that her words had such an impact. Glad we could share her message with you. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
53 is not old😊
@@andrewsnow1933 😁 it is only a bit "over th hill" of what a regular human being would live🤗
The graceful lady showed us a wise perspective on the world: we are all the same, yet different. Stay curious and go slow, and you'll see just how unique and beautiful the world is.
Lovely. We are thankful that her words meant much to you. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I can't find the words to fully express my love and gratitude for your labor of Love. You and Dot are the true Lightworkers here on a rather dark planet.
l light a flickering candle in honor of knowing people like you are Here, Now❣️
🤍✨️💖✨️🕊
I cried as I became covered in chills. What a wise beautiful light worker.
Glad her message meant much to you. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
@@ReflectionsofLife love and light to you 🌳✨💗
Not only is her voice amazing and beautiful, but I admire how she keeps herself in such great shape. I’m 70. I hope if God lets me live to be her age, I want to be like her. Bless you beautiful.
So nice that you liked the video, that she inspired you. May your wish come true. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
At 95, you have reinforced my childhood pledge never to lose my curiosity and sense of wonder. I feel that we are kindred spirits, each of us in our own orbit, yet moving together. Thank you so much for this beautiful video.
Loved reading your words of gratitude and appreciation for all that Dot shared with us. We send you love. Justine and Michael. x
I’m so glad that at 44 I have not lost my childlike wonder and curiosity. It truly makes life beautiful.
Lovely. 💚
I watch this having just lost my mum at 89 so in her 90th year. They look very similar, quite simply beautiful . My mum had dementia which meant she very happily lived in the present moment. She lived with me for her last 6 years and she taught me to slow down. To watch the birds, to notice the trees or the flowers. She was grateful for every day. We can learn so much from the elderly. And it hurts when they leave.
Sorry to read about the loss of your mother so recently, we hope you are doing ok. Sending much love and kindness to you. Justine and Michael. 💚
I’m sorry for your loss, and happy for you that you had the gift of having your mom for so long a time. You are blessed to have such memories.
"That's T. S. Eliot also. Love that one." Grateful for this lovely lady and her message. ❤

If this is not Spiritual Liberation…I don’t know what is. A Beautiful soul and teacher. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for appreciating all that Dot shared with us through her story. We're glad to know that it made you smile. Sending hugs. Justine and Michael. x
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Exactly!
❤️🙏
I was, for years, drawn toward the static idea of "spiritual freedom". It was a catch-phrase being tossed around in the 70's & after, & I gravitated toward that 3-D "freedom" idea but never reached it.
The wording "spiritual liberation" is an action term (to me) that my heart had never contemplated but that I had always needed to recognize and to act upon to help me fulfill my purpose in living the slow-life to my current age of 92.
How grateful I am to find it sequestered here in a beautifully simple comment in this awesome realm of beings opening their hearts so comfortably.
Thank you, Peter, for providing me a key piece of terminology to complete my life's continually curious, still-active years. 🥰
My grandmother was 97 when she was hit by a door at the nursing home. It broke her hip, dad did not sue and would not hear of it. She was a little Italian lady who had dementia for ten years. My mother also had dementia for ten years, she passed at 85. Daddy had his left eyeball replaced with a marble, he is 87. I cannot imagine being that old, but I did not imagine being in my 60's either. She's right on and groovy. God bless her ❤️🔥✨️
Thank you for sharing some of your experiences. So happy you enjoyed this video with Dot. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
Every moment for this grand old lady is special and precious....She does not regret growing old because she knows that it is a privilege not everyone has..She is very courageous and her Unique Spirit continues to evolve....God Bless her.....
Thanks for seeing the beauty in the words that she shares with us. She really is a remarkable woman and her message has inspired so many around the world. Hugs to you. Justine and Michael. x
We don’t travel alone, we're all just walking each other home.
Beautifully said - thanks so much for sharing. Sending warm hugs. Justine and Michael. 💚
That made me cry. It doesn’t take much these days. Blessings Susan!
It's a Ram Dass quote
And a song by Gordan Mote!
Omg if I live to be 96, I hope I’m as healthy, happy & intelligent as she is. ❤
Nice words. We wish that for you as well. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I'm 60 years old and I want to be like this wonderful being when I grow up!
She is a perfect example of the reason our elders used to be held in such respect.
She has more mobility at her age than I do now at mine - and what a clear mind and voice!
Her energy - to go out and play!
I hope I can be at least some semblance of this as I get older.
What a treasure she is! ❤
Determination naturually real food.being outside in touch with nature ,a kind heart,laughing every day looking at the sky trees weare part of tge universe see it love it be part of it tre hugging ,feet grounding .

It is a beautiful life😊
I feel like these are some of the most important videos on the internet. We don't receive enough wisdom from our elders anymore. There is so much to learn from them, so much to be inspired and uplifted by. The disintegration of our generations saddens me. Thank you for sharing people like Dot with us.
You are welcome. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, we are truly grateful that listening to Dot's story meant so much to you. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
Phenomenal, "...you don’t need remarkable circumstances to encounter awe."
💚
She brought me to tears. So much love, humility, and serenity serenity.
Thanks for seeing the beauty in the message that Dot shared with us. Sending love. Justine and Michael. x
I turned 81 this year. I recently received word that my college roommate died this year. Seems like just yesterday that we were a couple of 18 year old kids starting out in life. A life is such a blink of an eye. Looking back on my long life I would suggest two worthy goals to strive for in a well-lived life. One is to be a good listener. And two is to be a good "noticer". When I wake up each morning, I say to myself "Yay! I still exist. I get another day of conscious awareness. I get another day of hundreds of thoughts to enjoy" Death doesn't scare me because when my brain dies, I won't know I'm dead, just like all the billions of years before I was born..
I hear you beautiful soul!
Your words are beautiful😊
Thank you for sharing, wishing you many more happy and healthy years. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
I don’t know you, but I am glad you still exist, too, Barry. Sorry about your college roommate. I hope he had a good life.
I am 85 and can learn from her - how to find inward peace and joy and poems and a song on my lips when I get older!
Love to know that Dot's story has inspired you to embrace the fullness of life, every day, with childlike joy. Best wishes. Justine and Michael x
Jesus is your hope for all that... He loves you! He is the way, the truth and the life ... call on Him❤
I feel I love her. We are the same but different. Beautiful and wise woman. Bless her
💚
It sounds like she reinvented her childhood, reclaimed her inner child and her authentic self.
Her wish of dying in awe will come true, because the way in which we live is the same as when we die. As a bedside companion for Hospice, I learned that these kind of people just surrender to death and die in a very dignified way, as if knowing they manifested all the love and light, while on earth! Thanks for such a beautiful video.
A beautiful message - thanks for sharing of your experiences and also for the work that you do to assist those in their final chapter - such powerful and important work. Sending love. Justine and Michael x
I am part of the compost pile. She is so special. She talks to the universe.

From compost roses grow 🌹
Our bodies will become compost but our minds talk to the universe.
Wow! I'm 18 yrs behind her and I want to be a child like her when I'm 120 yrs old. Thank you for another gem. The very highest and best to us all.❤
Touching message. Glad her message inspired you. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚

@@BahaeEddinKerkech Life gets better and better with wisdom.
@@evesperspective7662 I am 55 now and really having anxiety about aging. Can you give me words of encouragement. I am somewhat living in anticipatory fear right now. After losing my beloved parents I am feeling lost and I know they would want me doing well.
Yes 😍🥰🙏🏼
This beautiful lady has transcended the limitations of being human! She is free and in touch with divine force .
Nice that her story resonated with you. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
This wise old lady is inspiring. At her 96 years old she speaks and explains her thoughts with such focus and clarity.
💚
She looks amazingly 70 if not younger. She has a young mind and body, and I love her joy she shared.
Thank you for your lovely words, so happy you enjoyed the video. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you,
She doesn’t mention anyone else, needing an abundance of relationships, all the societal things…
She is very awakened, this is “awe”some.
We are specks of dust and specks of light, star children ❤
Dot certain does have a very active social life, and is surrounded by a community of people who love, respect and care for her. She really is a remarkable woman, and we're glad that you enjoyed her story. Hugs. Justine and Michael x
It so beautiful to see a 96 year old women still know how do everything at that age and have a sharp mine. May god bless you whit health and strength amen🙏🏼
So glad you liked the video. Thank you for your kind wishes. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I work with elders who have dementia and Alzheimer's. I treasure every moment with them. Their precious memories that remain are so amazing and i am privileged to learn about their lives, desires, hopes and fears. ❤
I teach Chair Yoga to those with Alzheimer’s (early stages but honestly some are pretty progressed). We make sure to have laughs every session no matter what. I appreciate every moment with them!
Thank you for sharing, touching. Glad the work gives you so much. Much strength further. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
She has all the ingredients of a fully awakened being
💚
❤
It is true ❤
What a lovely person this woman is. In good shape, of sound mind & aware. And shes grateful to be doing so well. To be aware & in awe at any age, is something to be thankful for. I am.
Lovely message. So glad you enjoyed the video with Dot. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
@@ReflectionsofLife Thank you for that & back to you.
She is filled with light and love. Brings me much hope!

We need of the elders their wisdom, to share of themselves bring light, and that All will return to the same light one day!❤
So true - we have so much to learn from each other. And that's we'll continue to do with these films - sharing messages of hope and inspiration, shining more light out into the world. Thanks for being on this journey with us. Justine and Michael. 💚
We need (their) Love. Mutual and unconditional slow, engage in now, quiet (mind), conscious Love. 💜🙏
What an exceptional and inspirational human being. I am so moved by her grace and the intelligence she uses to live her best life at this stage of her journey. Thank you for this message of wisdom from this beautiful soul. 🙏✨💛

It’s none of my business what others think about me.
Such a gift to our world on so many levels. Wisdom that comes from aging with grace is beautiful to witness.
It makes us smile to know that this story stirred your soul. Thanks for tuning in to listen. Justine and Michael x
This is what true beauty looks like. 🙏🤗🙏
💚
She got me, when she said that she's like the compost pile, on her way out. It's touching and refreshing, to hear someone talk about the death that is near, it's so taboo in American culture, hardly anyone talks about leaving. Wonderful, I don't know how I landed here but I'm glad I did.
We're taught to fear death in western society,our fears can make a lot of money for others who really don't care about our well being. Listen to your own voice, about everything.
