The BEST thing I learned this year was how to still enjoy my life during my storms. As long as we have life we will have problems. My entire world can be in chaos & I'll still try to find a reason to laugh and smile.
Honorary degrees irritate me. No celebrity, in my opinion, Deserves one. College is demanding, requires a lot of sacrifice and commitment, and can be expensive for some. College kids aren't receiving Grammys or Emmys so why do actors and musicians receive degrees??!
I wish people would stop watching people’s lives through a screen and comparing themselves and what they have to others. Like no one truly has full access to anyone’s full life and full emotions. Content pretty as hell and life be in the dumpster.
