level.
There's always one trip, one ride,one surf, one expedition you make which you remember the most, over all the other adventures you have in life. It may be going to gorgeous parts of the world on a holiday, taking a trip to an island, or through rainforests or up mountains, however that feeling of being there and within an environment that is totally inspring will always stay in your mind, whatever happens.
I have had one of those trips and it has stuck in my head like glue.
That trip brought me here, to this family, to this way of life, to the remodelling of me, to glancing another perspective of a situation that I had lived throug, been hurt by and needed healing from. It taught me to value the priceless things such as love, understanding, caring, sharing, companionship with and between like-minded people.
It has given me the opportunity to look to the stars and see their beauty when there was no other beauty in my life, and I have gain a family and a future that means the world to me.
I work a programme that I would not give away, but am happy to share and teach others. It has brought me self respect, worth and love and enabled me to value myself as my God values me, so that I am able to value others with integrity.
Thank you. Suzannah

It is weekends such as the one I have recently spent with my daughter and her family that I realise the value of this trip...whilst working my programme...affect everyone, and all because I have remodeled me.
I managed to maintain my changed responses, gave no space for argument, took no prisoners and kept my own counsel throughout and came home so positive even though I did experience a bombshell explosion - my composure remained intact as was my serenity, which meant that there was nowhere for anyone to go to rock the boat.
Y I P P E E! What a miracle, and they keep on happening.
