Never give up your wife, husband, children and families.Believe that people can change.Give others opportunity to change.

The circumference of your breast may change; the shape of your hips may change; the size of your pants may also change. But your life never changes unless your thoughts, your plans and your actions change! Think big things!

You can do this (this thing, where your body will cease to produce hormones and your skin, hair, muscles and bones... Basically every part of you will notice, go into withdrawals, and stage a coup). Be prepared for this mentally, and you'll own this 'thing.

When I was suddenly thrust into what everyone calls menopause (Orchids) earlier than my body planned, I decided someone needed to take charge on so many levels. It was time to not only change the vernacular, but to speak up and say 'Hey! This isn't an old lady's disease! We aren't old! We are strong and dammit, we are beautiful and sexy too!

Who you are when you have no power to say anything, and who you become when you have power to say everything will determine whether you are a leader or not.

The divine moment is the grace of life-change.
