Dearest Dr. Laura,

I have written before, and have listened to you whenever I could since 1990; first in the U.S., then from Germany, and now from South Africa. You have helped me make my life rich and worth living, and though we do not agree on everything, I have taken your advice many, many times. The most important lessons have been the following:

1. Be sure to put priority on the areas of your life that will make you proud throughout your whole life, i.e. children, spouse, family and friends. You will have good memories and peace of mind, and your life will be a gift that keeps giving back to you.



2. Only I have the power over my own life, and no one on the face of the earth will ever care more about my life's path than I do. (Except you, Dr. Laura, who keeps tirelessly reminding me, and everyone else, of this fact, day in and day out.)



3. Live courageously, do the right thing, and be a shining light for those around you.  If you do, you will move mountains and inspire others to do so.

Thank you so much.

Jennifer
