With Thanks

To all the hearts who have touched mine across this path, thank you. 

My teachers; my family, my friends, the people I just met, you have helped me become the me I am today and, for that, I am sincerely grateful. 

Every day, with your help, I see myself more clearly, I live more joyfully, less fearful and more accomplished.  

To my children Valentina & Florence, to my loving partner Antony,  thank you for lighting me up when I don’t feel bright, encouraging me, when I don’t believe I can, and loving me, more than words could ever describe.
