Hungary has become an example to follow - Mandiner interview with Katalin Novák
"We must learn to desire what is ours." This quote was on your wedding invitation card. How can you apply this quote in everyday life?
What is given, what is already ours, we unfortunately forget to appreciate over time. The French philosopher Simone Weil's call is that, beyond appreciation, it is actually worth longing for what we already "have", what is already ours. This longing is also present in our marriage, and we try to live this approach in other areas of life and pass it on to our children.
