Book Cover & Preview Text
He was everything I thought I wanted. He lived in Mexico City, was going through a divorce, and had a young daughter. We saw each other once a month, he would fly to the USA on business, or I would fly to Mexico City. He treated me like a princess. He gave me gifts, took me out to romantic spots. We visited the pyramids, he showed me beautiful places, he gave me wonderful books to read, and he made love to me like I was a playboy centerfold. I didn’t fall in love. I fall off a concrete skyscraper in the middle of the desert. I fell 50 stories down, and plummeted, desperate for love and attention, into the only shot glass full of water for miles around. Like a deranged rabid dog, starved for a morsel, I welcomed the craziness.

About the Book
This autobiographical perspective at how a practice of Meditation, Guided Imagery, and Visualization for 40 years of my life helped me create the most authentic and joyful version of myself is not all about happy, happy, joy, joy. Learning can be painful. Real change and growth come from life’s difficult times. Reaching deep within to call on the wisdom of my ancestors, learning to listen to my inner spiritual guides, and then teaching this method to others has brought me here to share our stories. This book is not perfect. This method is not perfect. It is a way to reach personal realization and success. And oh the sweet satisfaction that being successful brings. It is the best revenge. It is justice, and you can do it too.
