my neighbor is about 103 years old .. she is a woman .. she lives in a flat on her own in a very noble kind .. I love her smile when I see her in the lift every morning
..she still wears beautiful shoes . Her feet are very small .. . She experienced the war
On the back of a horse she left during second work a big farmhouse .. Every time I see her tiny feet .. I think how did she rode this big horse . Once she put a foto on a table and I saw her .. very young woman next to the horse.. her smile is on this foto like hers today ..
She answers my good morning .. but than she quickly says hello to our dog and I love listening to her stories which the dog listened as well .. and swing as saying I like your stories by swinging his tail ..
The driver fetch her every morning .. to drive her to a place where she can join others .. late afternoon she comes back .. filled with loth emotions
These emotions she want to tell the man in the early morning from the care service .. for sparing time ..so for being with him she tries having her showers on her own and this time she spared .. she loves to have a coffee with him
this is my neighbor
