Friendship is a priceless gift that can't be bought or sold, its value is far greater than a mountain made of gold.
May this FriendSHIP always have wind in its sails and a sunrise on the horizon.

Re: The Perfect Ten! And Twentieth Season of DWTS
Let me add my wishes to the others, April. You come to mind many times throughout the day and I pray for you and yours. The part of your message that resonated with me was your reluctance, yet eventual ability to say those dreaded words: my daughter has cancer.
Four words that no one wants to ever have to say. Words are like that. Very powerful. Different than just thoughts. Or even words put privately to paper.
When I was a young girl - 10th grade - I had to learn to say the sentence, My father is deceased.
It had just recently happened. My mother and I were being asked some questions by a nurse filling out a form for me to return to school after an illness. "Father's name?" Silence on my part. "Her father is deceased." my mother said simply.
Finding the words, having the right words, and saying the words that not only speak the truth, but give our emotions, our grief, some verbal outlet is important I feel. They allow the sympathetic hearer of the words to understand, to empathise, to share your burden.
So good for you, April. Say the words out loud. Say them to God. Say them to us any time speaking will help ease your sorrows.

Peta at DWTS rehearsals. March 13, 2015.
I am sorry but no one walks around with their tummy sucked in like that and their pants drooped in my life...I think she does half of what she does for attention..sorry for that unpositive remark but really!!!! I don't think this is attractive!!!I'm with you!
I am not sure WHY the writer of this story think this looks good. (talking about the close up side view)
Honestly, if I never had to look at her again, it would be ok with me. Sounds harsh? Maybe but she is an attention whore and I find her to be pathetic. It's like watching a train wreck, you try not to look but something pulls you in and you look anyway.

I actually have a thighmaster somewhere!!! Haven't used it more than a dozin times in my life. But it has some value for those inner thigh muscles. LOLOL I suppose she gave everyone a thighmaster and a copy of her latest book. Isn't it about sex at 68?

Season 18 brought us together and now we are friends for life. Thank you Meryl and Maks. April, you and your family are on my mind and I lift you all up in prayer daily.

All I can say is OY VEY!! Contrast these pics with the ones coming out of restaurants. Obviously these are posed.
I absolutely love him, and he’s an incredible person. We have this friendship that I have no doubt in my mind is a life-long friendship. Getting a chance to know him away from training for Dancing With the Stars, I think we've gotten a chance to know each other in a different way, which of course just makes you closer. Meryl
We fell in love, but our way. Maks

Re: The Perfect Ten! And Twentieth Season of DWTS
Goddess in the Sunrise
Countless are the days
In which the sun has set and risen.
I held onto the air between us,
To the last breath exchanged,
To the last laugh we shared.
Many moons have come and gone
While the stars fed me hope,
Giving me dreams
That only Aphrodite knows.
Yet, in the morning the sun always rose,
The sound of the lyre never did I hear,
Apollo always brought reality to my ear.
The wind the truth did gently whisper
But blind was my love,
And my heart stubborn as a goat.
On numerous occasions to the wind I replied:
My lover's eyes are like the sun,
My love for him is always young.
Rain is he to my drought,
Destiny to me he brought.
For years I cried rivers of broken ego,
I was slowly becoming Hera, a jealous sap.
A fool was I to believe his empty smile,
The strength to dismiss him from my life,
Never did I try to find.
Always running back to his pretty eyes
Until today Athena's wisdom my soul revived.
The song of morning birds
Awoke my sleeping pride,
And resuscitated the goddess that lay inside.
~Mirtha Marmol~
