Those with love for life. People who understand that your self worth, who you really are or how cool you are isn't based on the kind of car you drive, or how much your pants cost or if your purse is Coach, or who is your dad is or who your boyfriend/girlfriend's dad is, or how good lookin you are or aren't, or where you went to school, or how much you make a year. People who value a good friend. People with a sense of humor and can laugh at themselves. Those who know is there is more out there than what's in their backyard.
