It is the little things that matter. If everyone can make a difference in just a small way, we can create a big difference. The world as it is today needs it.

Have some faith in humanity!

You don't need them...

Friends are the family you can choose for yourself, but they are also family that you can get rid of... My friends hurt me really bad, I thought they would respect my opinions just like I did theirs, but because I spoke up, they made a pact to ignore me and exclude me. It hurts. I feel alone, but I have myself and I will help make the world a better place and then the smiles of those I helped will be my friends. (We fought about the student protests happening in South Africa, they made racist remark and I did not stand for it)

So true...

I wonder what it’s like to have someone fall for you. And I mean really fall for you. Not just they want to get in your pants because they think you’re attractive. But be consumed with every little piece of you. The way you talk, the way you laugh, the way you just exist.
