«I am learning to understand rather than immediately judge or to be judged. I cannot blindly follow the crowd and accept their approach. I will not allow myself to indulge in the usual manipulating game of role creation.

I treasure the memory of the past misfortunes. It has added more to my bank of fortitude.»
