Dear Laura, I just can not imagine you without a smile. I think first the world will come to an end. And as far as money is concerned, I remember a saying from Peggy Holman that went something like this: When I need to work for money, this work appears. I mean, you really have to let go, to have that happen. Ask her how she does that. love and greetings from Berlin michael By the way, are you going to Vancouver? I heard that there are ways to support people who want to come but just dont have the cash.
