Me personally, I don't respond to the negativity. It's gonna be there. I read it. It keeps me grounded.

Amira HassI`ve had few dull moments [in my life] and not too many sad and defeated ones. In saying this I am by no means overlooking the rough and rocky years I`ve lived through. But I was not brought up thinking life would be easy. I always expected to work hard for my money and to get nothing I did not earn.
