it’s hard to be yourself in a world where everyone is trying to influence you to be something they envision you to be.

My heart belongs in New York City. Smiles and laughter are what get me by each day. Trying to find my special purpose in this life. I believe I am destined to make a change, even if it is one person's life. One of my many favorite quotes: “What are you going to do with your life?” In one way or another it seemed that people had been asking her this forever; teachers, her parents, friends at three in the morning, but the question had never seemed this pressing and still she was no nearer an answer… “Live each day as if it’s your last’, that was the conventional advice, but really, who had the energy for that? What if it rained or you felt a bit glandy? It just wasn’t practical. Better by far to be good and courageous and bold and to make difference. Not change the world exactly, but the bit around you. Cherish your friends, stay true to your principles, live passionately and fully and well. Experience new things. Love and be loved, if you ever get the chance.” — Dave Nicholls (One Day) We could all lend a hand |
