Child giggles with delight as she sails over a waterfall in Ecuador

Johanita is a seven year old child who greets the world with no fear or hesitation. Every day is an adventure and she smiles and laughs readily. Even though she has faced some medical challenges, she embraces life and all of the joy that each day brings her.
Here in Ecuador, Johanita visits a beautiful waterfall in a place called Cascada El Manta de la Novia (Waterfall Veil of the Girlfriend) with her family from Ecuador and her extended family from Canada. They stopped to take in the breath taking view from the top of the canyon. But the experience of flying over the canopy along the zipline was too beautiful to pass up. Strapped into a harness that took them out over the treetops and the river, Johanita extended her arms like a bird. Her emotions flow naturally and beautifully. She is overcome with joy as she soars more than one kilometre on the thin cable. Her laughter tells us that she is loving every moment. This is how Johanita lives her life. She captures the heart of everyone who meets her. We should all approach life as Johanita does.
