Today I spoke to a couple of people - one I've known for awhile - who are doing very well. I have a friend who turned her life around, decided to back to school at 46. She just graduated, finished her Associates Degree with a 4.0 average. She plans to go back to school in the fall, was accepted for 3 Masters' programs. She plans to go into social work to "pay it forward" so to speak.
