People who are passionate about what they do. Who will never take no for an answer. Who will setttle for nothing less than to live doing what they love. People who have traveled the world or who plan on doing so. People with great stories to tell and great lessons to teach. Who have a sense of humor. Who can make me laugh...Too often we underestimatethe power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around...
