Many of us have lived through those definite moments that completely redefine who we are. It tests the resistance of relationships and strengths of character. The good news is that after such tribulations, good does come out.

Two years ago, amidst living my dream and through a series of events I personally thought I would never recover from, a group of friends rallied around me and believed in me. To be seen though the eyes of your loving friends, it`s a glorious thing. Because it is them who have no shame in pointing out how amazing (they think) you are.

That got me through the worst. But I also unknowingly sank myself into my work. I “drew” away all my problems and forged ahead with my career. Little did I know that all of those drawing would be noticed by Dior. It is without a doubt my definitive moment. Plus it was nice a local newspaper picked up my story.

Today, I am grateful to my friends who supported me-Elizabeth F., Angelice T., Margaret Rose, Tammy K., Erika B. and Ruta F. I am incredibly indebted to you! Thank for being a friend!!

    Talk about having a St. Paul on the road to Damascus moment!! What a wonderful piece on you. Truly, women are the most amazing sex……constantly reinventing themselves for the better, better, best. I’m still a work in progress, how about you?

    There is a buddist saying that paraphrased says, You should be like a block of wood and carve enough to change and leave some for later. A work in progress is how I how I feel.
    Women are certainly nurturers, if we could use our power for good the world indeed would be perfect. :)
