About Me



"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Life is not about the amount of breaths you take, but rather the moments that take your breath away..."


"We must be the change we wish to see in the world." - Ghandi
