It makes me feel good–beyond words–to think that maybe someone is benefitting from what I’ve learned through all of my suffering over the years–
Even if I can only help one person, it’s a good thing…takes a little weight off of my shoulders–
Not one person can save the world, but we can help the people who cross our paths–

Subject: Someone on Amazon wrote the nicest thing to me π
A few weeks ago, I wrote a response on Amazon to a woman who has a daughter with ovarian cancer–
(I mostly just shared my anti-cancer plan….Budwig diet, yoga, stuff like that π
After I wrote it, I didnt think of it anymore (its out in the internet universe :), so I was shocked to get an email that she responded…it’s just my nature to be kind–to help others in any way that I can–we can’t save everyone, but we can help some people. That’s the motto we live by in the D**** family π
Her note made me feel good though…I also had a long IM session over the weekend with my little sister’s teenage boyfriend, whose having a rough time, and he told me “you really should have your own tv show. helping young adults.”
Next lifetime, I told him….next lifetime π
