There is a replica of this statue in the visitors center at Temple Square in Salt Lake City. One of my favorite statues
Who wouldn’t we want to ride the flying swings at the famous Tivoli Amusement park. It was a fantastic view of Copenhagen. As you can see from the movie, I was excited and a bit nervous 🙂
This reminded me of the book “The Three Questions” based on the writings of Tolstoy. The three questions are, What is the best time to do things? Who is the most important one? And, What is the right thing to do? The answers in the book are: The best time to do things is now. The most importnat one is the one you are with at that moment. The right thing to do is to put others before yourself. Live in the moment. Enjoy where you are at this moment and look forward to where you will be in the next moment.
