Hi Jo: I want to thank you for all the little statements you make that mean
so much.
Last weekend my ex-sister-in-law gave me a book called "The Cancer Conqueror
- an incredible journey to wellness" by Greg Anderson. I started reading it
on Monday and it has thrown me for a loop. It should be called the Life
Conqueror, there's help in there for everyone. But what is has shown me is
how inadequate I am as a loving human being. In reading it has so many
changes that I have to make it's overwhelming. Your ROOM for improvement
put me in mind of this book which is why I am rattling on.
Thanks again. Your friend June A.
