I had been in a motorcycle accident and I'd been hurt, but I recovered. Truth was that I wanted to get out of the rat race. Having children changed my life and segregated me from just about everybody and everything that was going on. Outside of my family, nothing held any real interest for me and I was seeing everything through different glasses.

It's nice to look back on your life and see things as lessons, and not regrets.

The deeper I go into myself, the stronger I become, because I realize that my real self is much bigger than any fear.

Old man take a look at my life, I'm a lot like you were.

Open your eyes, look within. Are you satisfied with the life you're living?

We need to reshape our own perception of how we view ourselves. We have to step up as women and take the lead.
