Recipe For a Long, Happy Life...


One of my favorite photographers is the highly original, and often imitated Ruth Bernhard, who had these words of wisdom on how to live a long, happy life:

1. Never get used to anything
2. Hold onto the child in you
3. Keep your curiosity alive
4. Trust your intuition
5. Delight in simple thing
6. Say 'Yes' to life with passion
7. Fall madly in love with the world
8. Remember: Today is the day!
