Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to give you an update.  Well, things did not work out with the S. Korean business man.  He was very bossy, controlling and demeaning.  I have no regrets about going solo around the world.  I'm a different person now.  I have been on a 36 hour flight in one week.  I've been to a foreign country.  I've been in elevators, drove a car with my International driver's license, and have been on trains.  All without anxiety.  I believe in myself.  I am fearless and I do not let fear dictate my actions.  I can do anything.  I have no regrets going.  I've tested myself and know how to cope in all situations, thanks to this site and everyone on it.  I was also attacked one night and raped.  I survived and I am strong and I'm focusing on all of the positive things that happened and not on the one negative thing.  Life is precious; life is good.  I've pushed myself far beyond what I thought was possible and discovered the only limitations I had were self imposed.  I tell you all of this to give you hope and encouragement that if I can do all of this, nothing is impossible for you to do as well.  Please don't be discouraged by a time frame. Everyone needs to take their own time to discover their capabilities.  There is no time limit.  Just keep going forward, no matter how long it takes, and know you are improving every step of the way.  Thank you for listening to my story.  I hope everyone is well and is taking each day step by step.  

Shari
