“Mental illness doesn't choose the most talented or the smartest or the richest or the poorest. It shows no mercy and often arrives like an unexpected storm, dropping an endless downpour on young dreams.”

“You may not be the smartest, richest or best looking person but you're probably not the dumbest, ugliest or poorest either.”

“Welcome to Hartford. The poorest city in the wealthiest state in the richest country on earth.”

“life is a classroom. we are both student and teacher. each day is a test. and each day we receive a passing or failing grade in one particular subject: grace. grace is compassion, gratitude, surrender, faith, forgiveness, good manners, reverence, and the list goes on. it's something money can't buy and credentials rarely produce. being the smartest, the prettiest, the most talented, the richest, or even the poorest, can't help. being a humble person can and being a helpful person can guide you through your days with grace and gratitude.”

“How to arrive unexpectedly and invisibly: show up looking poor, but not homeless.”

“Ill show you a Sweet dream”
