And that's the answer to the whole problem.  Women need to have 
enough self-esteem that they feel comfortable being themselves.  I 
don't watch TV or read fashion magazines because they are all full of 
propaganda put out by the advertisers.  Working with people who have 
nothing also helps you to realize what is really important in 
life.  I get very impatient with celebrity news and soap opera 
dilemmas.  Thank goodness, my husband has always loved me as I am 
because I'm not changing for anybody!!
