I love playing and chatting with children..feeding and putting them to bed with a little story, and being away from the family has troubled me throughout my..life. i like relaxing at the house, reading quietly, taking in the sweet smell that comes from the pots, sitting around a table with the family and taking out my wife and children. when you can no longer enjoy these simple pleasures something valuable is taken away from your life and you feel it in your daily work. Nelson Mandela
About This Quote

The simplest things in life are often the most precious. When you smell the smell of home, when you sit around the table with your family, when you take out your wife and children with a little story to share, it's time to enjoy life. Once you can no longer enjoy these simple pleasures something valuable is taken away from your life and you feel it in your daily work.
