Southern California was drenched with rains over a year ago. The rains caused great damage to people, businesses and housing. Then in the spring, flowers bloomed in this semi-desert land, flowers we had never ever seen before! Mayra shares some of them with us.

So too our lives are deluged with pain and circumstances out of our control. If we hang in there long enough, believe enough, surround ourselves with people who support us, then the flowers of our lives bloom. It's as if they are saying with a prophet of long ago, "Wait on it. It will come to pass. It is not a lie!"

Meet Vicky Perez. After a very active and successful life, Vicky Perez is in the the midst of great "rains"... brushes with death, a stroke, kidney transplant, pending blindness, yet she generates "flowers" in her day-to-day life.

A simple but extraordinary life! A kick-ass life! You'll fall in love with her.

"Monday Mayra" brings us to the realization that, "What fun to be 83 and not give a hoot about what anybody thinks!"

With Ash, her co-host puppy, she shares a fun afternoon on the beach while giving a fun and wise twist to her visit.
