    The documentary has previews in many cities. We went this week in Kansas City. It opens here on April 18th. The film is fabulous. I loved every bit, and plan on going again!

    Dear one be encouraged! When a fire has been lit in your spirit you must complete it. The trick will be 3 things 1- expect negativity and combat this by placing a team of positive people, music, art, books etc around you. 2- set your own pace, as there is no race, no specific manner or time...
