I joined TTL the first time because I had low self-esteem and self-confidence. I had this horrible sense that I was wasting my life, my time, and my energy. I had a nagging sensation that I was on the wrong path but I had no idea which direction to turn. I was pretty depressed and had a deep sense of hopelessness and no belief whatsoever in myself, my abilities or my own goodness. I am going through the program a second time because I saw miracles happen in my life. Unfortunately, I didn't stick with Tools. Some of the good things that had materialized in my life and my personality began to fall away. I miss those things and I want them back. Not only do I want them back but I want more, a lot more. I'm not talking about material possessions, I'm talking about character virtues. I saw parts of myself emerge that were absolutely beautiful. No question about it, I have a lot to give. I also have a lot more to learn. I was so excited the first time around, I don't think I absorbed more than 25% of what I was taught. I am so glad Tools is still here for me and I can give 100% effort this time around and not worry about whether or not the program will really work for me. I had tried so many things before Tools that did not work and left me feeling despondent and disillusioned. I can honestly say that the time I have spent working TTL has given me the most productive, rewarding, enjoyable experiences I have ever had in my entire life.

 I want to own and operate a Naturopathic Clinic. I want to teach others how to be healthy in mind and body so that they can fully enjoy their life experience and help others do the same.

 The wolf because of its loyalty to its family, the mother's ferocity in protecting her young, their strength and adaptability, their sleek grace and beauty, their beautiful eyes, and most of all the spiritual quality of the sound they make when they howl.

 They live in packs and depend on each other. Each accepts his position in the pack and seems to understand that all members have value, even the Omega wolf.

 I have two cats right now, I'd like to get something that would want to cuddle with me, I wish I had a baby Binobo to raise.

 Because I like the way Binobo's run their society. The women are in charge and they use affection instead of violence to resolve conflicts. They walk upright and look very human. I guess it would be very close to having my own child. This could all change once my grandson is born in August.

 A really good salad with pecans in it and an awesome dressing. I'd like it to be something I could duplicate and vary by adding or subtracting ingredients. I'd like it to be a salad that I could make a variation of and eat daily without getting bored.

 Because I love salad but I don't have many creative ideas in how to make a truly good one. Also, you can pretty much cover all your nutritional needs with one good salad if you add the right ingredients. Lastly, no cooking and only one bowl, this might be the major attraction.

 Abe Lincoln, Jesus, Einstein, Feinman, Ghandi. I know a lot of people say they'd like to meet all of the above, but I can't help it, those are my choices.

 I chose Abe because of the fact that he seemed to suffer from depression like me and he didn't have a lot of advantages growing up. He was a self-made man and I feel he was selfless also because he wanted to end slavery even though it could have got him thrown out of office. Also he realized that "together we stand, divided we fall."

 I would like to stay at a resort in Africa. I can't remember the name but it is run by the local Masi people and the tourist trade is really helping the local people thrive.The native people run the resort and own the land which is what is so unique about it.

 Pomodoro - it has pesto, mozerella, and tomatoes, the crust is nice and crispy when you cook it in a toaster oven.

 Diet Coke with extra ice.

 Green tea.

 "That myself and loved ones are free from danger, that we have peace of mind, health of body, community and an easy sense of well being." Cat Stevens

 I'd bring 3 books on cd. I'm always listening to them because I seldom have time to read for fun and my eyes aren't what they used to be. Besides, that way my husband could take the adventure of the mind with me. I would choose famous great literature.

 I would try to fully listen and form connections with the people I meet whenever possible. I would like to be able to help them to appreciate their own inner beauty. I would like to help them enjoy their life experience to the fullest. I would like to help them live in a way that gives them the sense of having reached their full potential. I would try to help them connect spiritually to a higher power so that they could be reassured daily that they are using their time and energy for the highest good. I would love myself unconditionally and share that love with all I came into contact with.

 I remember the sunsets in Australia while boating in the mangroves.

 Mighty Mouse.

 I like his mantra "Here I am to save the day!"
