my VN interview

How did you get to where you are now?

I have just kept on trying to do the best I could for everyone in my life.  trying to live fearless and according to my values.  It has not been easy and has been a time filled with work, joy and pain.

How do you see yourself differently now than you did 10 years ago?

Now I am trying to live for myself. Make decisions that make me happy. I find it much more challenging to live for my happiness  and health than  I did 10 years ago.  I am trying to be more open emotionally.

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

I hope I have achieved a calm, cool acceptance for the things I cannot change in my life.  No worries and lots of fun with my friends.

a postcard to my younger self

Do not take yourself so seriously.  Accept other people and their opinions. don't try to change the world.  Let it be, be HAPPY.  LOVE IS THE ANSWER.

my role models

I don't really have any role models.  I just like ideas.  Great thinkers. Ann Marrow Lindbergh's book were very helpful. when I was young. Eleanor Rooevelt.  Loved the book " Seat of the Soul" by Zuksv.
