I come from a minimum wage working world, as we all did for at least some part of our lives, and that is never out of my rearview. I've never forgotten how much your feet hurt after you've stood on them for like 12 hours. And how the drudgery of a job you hate craps on your entire life; how you treat other people, how you treat yourself, and it really was getting to me.

Change is hard, but change is good.

No magic. I do believe you might have taken it all with you when you went away.

There is no place in the world like Australia. Not even its beautiful neighbor New Zealand.

Human beings should not be reduced to a state to where they almost get into a fight over a small bar of soap.

Muscle mass does not always equal strength. Strength is kindness and sensitivity. Strength is understanding that your power is both physical and emotional. That it comes from the body and the mind. And the heart.

I need to do things on my own, need to be left alone.
