- I am an eternal optimist who believes all people are inherently good. I also believe God gifted us with the ability to create our own lives and control our own destiny. We can’t control what happens to us or around us, but we can control how we respond to it. Live your life to the fullest. Love those around you. Laugh as often as possible. Think good thoughts, don’t live with the brakes on, and always take the scenic route. It’s amazing what you can accomplish if you don’t care who gets the credit. And if you ever need anything from me, please ask. God put us on this earth to watch out for each other—and I got your back.
