		<description>Thank you, Brenda, for your timely message as well.

Your message most certainly &quot;spoke&quot; to me and I feel encouraged to go forth on my new path .  Yes...it&#039;s true I&#039;ve had people making all kinds of discouraging remarks.  Some felt that it will be too &quot;difficult&quot; for me to juggle so many tasks.  Some thought that since I&#039;ve already quit from my job, I should just focus on my kids, and not waste time on useless pursuits.  One person even told me that I was already too &quot;old&quot; and to do something online would be considered late.  That was 4 years ago when he said that.  I&#039;ve not even hit 40 yet!

It&#039;s hard not to feel affected sometimes.  That&#039;s why it&#039;s important for us to motivate and support each other in focusing on our dreams and not get derailed by the negative comments. 

Thanks for sharing, Brenda.  I wish you continued success in your alternative health business.  Let&#039;s show them we can make our dreams happen, shall we?

With much love,
Evelyn</description>

		<description>Evelyn, Thank you so much for your timely message! I have had many ups and downs while pursuing my life-long dream. Two years ago, at the age of 47, I began taking my incredible dream journey, in starting an online alternative health business.

While taking small steps in following that dream, I began looking back on my past. Suddenly, I realized the painful adversities that I had lived through had really prepared me for this time in my life!

While learning this new career, I have had many ups, and a few frustrating downs. I have come to realize this was not meant to go fast or easy. It has taught me to be patient, forgiving, and loving towards myself while building my dream like a master crafstman.

Above all, shake off the negative opinions of others who view what you are doing as risky behavior. Forgive and love them despite their concern. They merely are afraid for you. 

Keep your vision alive in your mind everyday and let no man (or woman) put you down. Think back on your life from the moment you made your decision to go-for-it, and look at all the synchronous events (miracles) that were manifested on your behalf. Each one helped you to reach the point where you are right now.  All because you chose to do your work, by being responsible to do what you felt was right for you. After, all if you were not good enough to do what your heart really wants to do, you would not be here. Plus, when you simply ask the unseen forces for their help you will be utterly amazed at the people, ideas, strategies, and techniques that will be brought to you, in making your dream become a reality. No man is an island, we all need help. But, the forces that be expect to see you taking motivated steps (no matter how small) in the direction you wish to go. They want to see your serious intent. You will not get there by just sitting and wishing and waiting for it to fall into your lap.

		<description>Evelyn my dear,
Just a superb rendition of the &#039;Little Mermaid&#039;, as well as a great lesson for us to follow. Don&#039;t let anyone dissuade you from your dream and life goals. Always keep them before you and treat them as real and true in the moment. Show love and forgiveness to all and expect miracles everyday, with gratitude in your heart. Above all, see the best in every opportunity of each new day and go for the gusto! It is our inheritance! 
Much Love and Light,
James</description>
