This issue is so filled with articles and columns about relationships that I can't imagine anyone not resonating with it. I know I have. I've been working on some of my relationships lately and working with these writers - reading their thoughts - has assisted me greatly on my path. I am deeply honoured to have each and every one of them in this issue and I hope all of you feel the same once you've read them.

We all change, we all grow. I know I used to be a very passive person and when I was alone and attempting to 'find myself' I couldn't. I was different with everyone I was with. Very different… so much so that I don't think I really had a 'normal self'. I was like a chameleon, changing to be whoever I thought each person needed me to be… but not in a good way like Janet does in her column this issue, rather in a way that I lost myself within everyone else.

Then I met Magi Frost. The day I met her my entire life changed. I became strong. I learned that saying no wouldn't mean the entire world was about to collapse around me. I found my voice and I found my Self. Since that time I've become a strong, independent woman and I really like me. I continue to grow and change… as I believe that's vital to our existence as humans… but all in all I'm very pleased with how I turned out. All those years of soul-searching did me good.

So I would like to dedicate this issue to Magi - the one person in my life who I can honestly say - I would not be who I am today without her influence. Her love and honesty, caring and support, compassion and guidance has assisted me more than anyone else who has touched my life and I honour her for this. I sit in awe of who you are Magi and I aspire to learn as much from you as I am able in this lifetime and into the next. namaste' I love you.

Our relationships are so important… and I feel our relationship with Earth is also a very important one. I invite you all to check out Zero Footprint and see what kind of a footprint you are leaving on the Earth every year.

namaste',
Aleesha
