~The ART of COMMUNICATION~
… “I struggled with the art of conversation”….. I wanted to have friends and to have fun. To do so I knew that I would have to acquire better social skills….My motivation went into overdrive after my husband and I divorced. I realized that I’d have to start socializing if I wanted to meet anyone.”
