Dear Janice,

You are exactly where you need to be in your journey. We are all given struggles to overcome. It takes time to learn. In some of them we discover our purpose. How would we know it without them? In them we grow stronger. They give us the fire and fuel to try. They say people really start going for the best life in their 30's and here you are starting to take those steps exactly in your 30's. Look at all the steps you are taking now that you used to never do and thought you might never do. You are stronger than you can see. I am so proud of you for dreaming big and for the compassion you want to spread throughout the world. The world so desperately needs the enormous transformation you dream of giving it. Never ever think that dream is too big. Also, just know that there is someone out there for you craving all that loyalty and romance you have to offer. They will completely melt into a puddle with your love. I so rarely meet people with such pure intentions like you. If all people had your heart, the world would be as it should be. Keep dreaming and keep fighting. Everything you desire is at your fingertips.

Love Always,

Your Friend
