Once upon a time, in the midst of war, I went to Afghanistan with one hundred dollars to my name, a one-way airplane ticket and no promise of a job. Even though it seemed insane and frightening, I went because of my belief in the human spirit and that ALL will work out. I will briefly share this and similar experiences to show that anyone (even little hippie chics like me) can overcome ALL obstacles. My presentation will be a challenge to go where one has always dreamed of going, but put off because of fear or doubt.
