The roses, the lovely notes, the dining and dancing are all welcome and splendid. But when the Godiva is gone, the gift of real love is having someone who'll go the distance with you. Someone who, when the wedding day limo breaks down, is willing to share a seat on the bus.

Intent and service-that is my motto.

If all this happened to you what paradigm might you develop? How might that paradigm affect you in terms of your life from that point on? What does this tell you about Abe? There are no failures, only lessons to be learned.

Everyone has to learn to think differently, bigger, to open to possibilities.

The choices we've made throughout our lives affect whatever happens to us in any given moment.

The smallest change in perspective can transform a life. What tiny attitude adjustment might turn your world around?

I will tell you that there have been no failures in my life. I don't want to sound like some metaphysical queen,but there have been no failures. There have been some tremendous lessons.
