    Having someone like Portia in her life is the most beautiful thing.. She supports her dreams and helped her to make it come true..she stays on her side for morethan a decade and they still look happy and contended to be on each others side..they are wonderful human being... Truly my inspiration to atleast try being kind to one another.. Ellen & Portia, may God give you a long life to live and good health...😀

    She is the most serious about it like its her life's passion. It was amazing that she was simply so calm her body language changed. I am glad you got to do it and live it ✌️. If someone is desperate for some passion from within deep soul from the very beginning, it means it was the thing one was meant to contribute on in this life. And OMG I realized mine!
