"I don't think that I do a lot [for others], but I know that many people can be affected by the littlest things- in a positive way. I make sure people take care of themselves, and that they know how important they are to me. Everyone needs to know that they're special in their own way."

"If they don't know [me] personally, [I] don't take it personally. Nothing anyone can say is something I haven't heard before from a stranger.
