We have several digital cameras. I don’t know how to use any of them very well. I guess I should try reading the manual!

I was married twice; both marriages ended badly. After the second divorce, I swore off men completely. Then, one day, I met an extraordinary man. I swear to you that the first time I looked at him, I saw a bright white aura around him and something golden glowing around his head. I don’t do drugs, I’m not mentally ill, and I’m not a hippy-dippy type, so this was really very strange. But something told me I needed to get to know this man. I did, and we are very happy and have a healthy, wonderful little boy together.

I was separated from my husband and wanted to give things one more good college try. We were both living in the southern U.S. at the time. If the marriage failed, I wanted to know I had done everything possible to save it. So I decided to find out more about him by visiting his family in Peru. I went there about two weeks after the 9/11 tragedy. For me, it was a brave move. I never thought I would have the guts to travel alone to a country I didn’t know. I wasn’t going to let fear about terrorists or security stop me. Well, the marriage ended up not lasting too much longer, but I did get to meet some really nice people in Peru and have the trip of a lifetime. And I also gained confidence in myself.
