Fw: Angel YOU CAN DO IT

[Guest guest]

I'm sorry Angel. I really meant to help. I really do think you are

amazing in all you have done. My intention was to be supportive, I work

with people to have what they want in their lives whether it is quitting

smoking or losing weight or really anything at all that matters to them.

I obviously went too far and I apologize.

 

I had offered to help you (for free- my time and my expense) if you

wanted not to sell you anything- not snake oil. I would have spent hours

of my time- I would have led you in creative visualization and helped

you to have more of what you want...as a coach people pay me a lot to do

that kind of work...I was offering for free because I care and I wanted

to be helpful.

 

I am very sorry if I over stepped my bounds here- I did not have your

permission. I have found when I examine my regrets in life it is more

for what was not said than what was...but truly I only meant to help and

I suppose I was truly worried about the baby.

 

Take care. I only wish you the best. I certainly did not mean to bring

any more stress into your life.

 

My mom once taught me that help is something that's asked for. This is

so very true. It's never help if it's not wanted. Please forgive my me

for offering something that was not asked for.

 

Love,

Elizabeth
