Only do what your heart tells you.

I do things differently because I don’t go by a rule book, because I lead from the heart, not the head, and albeit that’s got me into trouble in my work; I understand that.

Being There For Others

Anywhere I see suffering, that is where I want to be, doing what I can.

The greatest problem in the world today is intolerance. Everyone is so intolerant of each other.

Carry out a random act of kindness, with no expectation or reward, safe in the knowledge that one day someone might do the same for you.

Every one of us needs to show how much we care for each other and, in the process, care for ourselves.

I think the biggest disease the world suffers from in this day and age is the disease of people feeling unloved. I know that I can give love for a minute, for half an hour, for a day, for a month, but I can give. I am very happy to do that, I want to do that.

Family

William has brought us such happiness and contentment, and consequently, I can’t wait for masses more.

Hugging has no harmful side effects. If we all play our part in making our children feel valued, the result will be tremendous. There are potential huggers in every household.

Family is the most important thing in the world.

I want them to have an understanding of people’s emotions, people’s insecurities, people’s distress, and people’s hopes and dreams.

Love

People think that at the end of the day, a man is the only answer. Actually, a fulfilling job is better for me.

I touch people. I think everyone needs that. Placing a hand on a friend’s face means making contact.

I don’t want expensive gifts; I don’t want to be bought. I have everything I want. I just want someone to be there for me, to make me feel safe and secure.

Everyone needs to be valued. Everyone has the potential to give something back.

I wear my heart on my sleeve.
