[Viva] TEDx Talk on HIV, PTSD and depression

[Moyra Fielding]

I was very grateful as well to receive the link to that talk of how taking
photos helps people.... After I had spent 20 years struggling deeply with
very deep addiction some because the real world's reality seemedtoo hard to
swallow.... I won first prise in a contest with the hope in shadows
calendar people and started thinking if I could take ONE picture that could
go so far..... They even asked me if it could become part of the crest of
hope in shadows and I am so blessed that one picture I have taken goes
EVERYWHERE  they go.... It is on the side of the car and on website.... I
quit my addiction I'm so excited to say and proud of..... And since then
have bought a 200.00 camera and have been taking pictures every day
since....... Bless people that care and thank you viva for helping people
share..... May god's peace surround you today andalways..... I also found a
wonderfully supportive new family in the two different churches I visit
with leather can hardly walk EVERY SUNDAY.... warmth to all.... If anyone
wants to call me.    Valerie.   604.   620. 8900.
