A wise old man once told Natasha that there are 3 components to success – money, education, and luck.

Natasha reflects on the fact that for a significant period of her life she hated everything about her life. She came to the conclusion that just because she hated her life that didn’t mean she should stop living it. No one knows what the future holds – including her.

Natasha is the descendant of slaves on both sides of her family. She reflects on how her heritage shapes who she is today.

It’s important to understand that even though you maybe sick mentally or physically you always have options when it comes to your medical treatment. Find a doctor who you trust and respect. That is the fastest way to recover.
