@Anthony,

I ordered the DVD, but now have doubts I can play it on my European laptop.

As you probably know, the world is divided into DVD regions. For the US it is Region 1. For Europe Region 2, etc:

I am thinking of sending the DVD back unopened, and expect a $5 restocking cost subtracted from from the refund.

Maybe it would be helpful for potential customers to know whether the DVD send to them is formatted for their region. Otherwise -unless they live in the US- they might not order your film, or not be able to play it.

From Holland with love,
Lode

First, thanks to all of you for sharing your comments. It’s clear that everyone is facing life’s challenges and is somehow finding light in the journey.

I also want to wish you luck in the drawing (it ends tonight at 11:59PM) for a complimentary copy of my film “Calling it Quits” on DVD. I think you will find the lead character’s journey humorous and uplifting.

Be well.

The thing I keep learning time and time again when life hurtles obstacles and problems my way is that there is a point where I need to come to terms with the fact that there are thing I cannot control or impact. I’m a fixer so this is a daily struggle for me when my loved ones and/or I are struggling.

I am from Bosnia and life has thrown a civil war at me while being only 13. We had to move, lost a lot of people, and now I live in California. I am very happy, married and have a son. If I can go through war, I can go through anything and I have always been an optimistic person, and it takes a lot to get me down.

My response to the question is that you cannot live your life for others or how you think people want you to. You only have one life and it you don’t get it right, you HAVE to keep trying!!!

I am NF-1 which, in my case, causes memory problems: difficulties in forming memories, difficulties in retrieving memories, etc. I solved many of my memory problems by taking a course designed for senior citizens. Now, I know to keep all of my possessions in their proper “homes” (phone numbers and addresses in an address book, magazines and books in a bookcase, etc.), to act immediately when I suddenly remember to do something (like call a friend to thank her for picking up my mail when I went on vacation), to use my left hand for routine actions(like locking the door when I leave the house), etc.

I made some big changes in my life that my family did not support – it was very hard to continue knowing they didn’t approve, but I am so happy with my life!

Am I happy? Double edged question. Personally I am at a good place, but because my children are not in a similar good place, my own happiness is taking a back seat.
