Much has changed since the first version of this book was released. So much that I decided it was time to do a revision. That's the way life goes, you know? Just when you think you have everything all figured out; when you're living with the person you think will be with you forever in the house you built together. Then it all falls apart. The person you thought was your best friend decided you are no longer theirs. Health challenges occur. People pass on. I had five people in my life transition from life within an 18 month period of time beginning right around the time of my divorce. Yes it was traumatic. Life happens. Things change.Then somewhere along the way I changed too. I stopped hiding who I was. I stopped caring so much about whether or not people liked me. I learned to embrace my gifts, let go of those people who never liked me to begin with, and most importantly, I learned to love myself. The real, messy, animal loving, creative, intelligent and silly me.So, too, this book has changed a bit. Things added, others either removed or edited. It has been asked of me why not just do a new book, and in all seriousness I am working on one. But if life changes, and I've changed, then I do believe this book can change as well. I do hope you like it.
