"it's hard to stay mad, angry or upset, when you are faced with the gift of a beautiful friendship"... "Be a friend to people, be a beacon of light, strive to leave this world better than you found it, be the gift of friendship in people's lives"..."Human connection is the most important thing to me in my life"..."If you feel like you were kind of dealt a sad hand of family dynamics, that need not be your destiny, you can establish other families with meaningful friendships"..."Human suffering needs to be addressed, I think it needs to be talked about"..."Things that you plan may not work out as you plan them to, but that doesn't mean you still can't find satisfaction and joy in life, you can be optimistic, hopeful, assertive, and you can be proactive instead of reactive. You don't have to be the smartest, most attractive or best looking person to find success and accomplishment in this life." Enjoy!
