I think that many people treat children with disabilities is not as common, so sometimes they get angry. They're just kids and all they need is attention and kindness. Want for every child.

I am proud to be a good friend. Because all that really matters in life is... people. To be a good friend - so good to treat them and be with them when needed.

- Why do you call Kate "the Optimist"? - asks Shelley.
He looks at me and then at her. Then back at me. And back at her.
- You met this girl? - points a finger at me he asks.
All with a smile they all look at me.
- She is positivity. Damn ray of sunshine. Kate not only looks on the brighter side... she lives it.
- Um, I always thought that we live in a world where the sun shines and shines, and a rainbow - just kidding.
He shrugs his shoulders.
- One garbage. Although, the Sun Shines and Shines rainbow is a terrible name.
All present are filled with laughter.

Smile is not always happy, but it is such an open, happy, and confident. Looking at her, you'd swear I knew her a hundred years, and she knows all your secrets. And despite these, she likes you.

I always perceive the person as a whole, with all its good and bad sides... I can see it, but try not to let it affect my judgment about the person. People are complicated creatures, as well as life itself.

Don't sacrifice the present for the unknown future. People ignore the happy moments in life, set them aside for later, for the future, which they may never be. So don't miss today for tomorrow, for which you cannot vouch.

Live a little.
