goes impact life million people realize
There are a million people who are refugees, ... Life goes on, and if it didn't impact you directly, you may not realize how devastating this is.
keys realizing key-to-happiness
The thing everyone should realize is that the key to happiness is being happy for yourself and yourself.
real eye dark
I still get scared at night. Every tiny creak, every little noise, I open my eyes real wide and listen with them. Have you noticed that? When it’s dark and you can’t see a thing, you open your eyes really wide and glance back and force, like your eyes become your ears?
reality thinking winning
But seriously, I think overall in the scheme of things winning an Emmy is not important. Let's get our priorities straight. I think we all know what's really important in life - winning an Oscar.
fake-people reality years
Yeah I'm thirty-six, but on the show I'm thirty-two. Nobody wants to watch a thirty-six year old woman, so they decided to make me thirty-two. Much more appealing somehow.
real talking drifting-off
I do have ADD and in real life, I'm all over the place and can hardly focus. If we were talking for, for more than an hour or so, I'd start drifting off... I can't sit still too long.
technology reality phones
So excited for the Apple Watch. For centuries, we've checked the time by looking at our phones. Having it on your wrist? Genius.
nice real rapper
Why can't rappers just say nice things? Like I wanna take your clothes off and hang them up in the closet real nice.
real thinking knowing-who-you-are
I think beauty comes from actually knowing who you are. That's real beauty to me.
pain reality animal
I do it because I love animals and I saw the reality. And I just couldn't ignore it anymore. I'm healthier for it, I'm happier for it. I can't imagine that if you're putting something in your body that is filled with fear or anxiety or pain, that that isn't somehow going to be inside of you.
real believe grateful
This is my real secret to being a joyful person: I make my life easy. I spend more time being grateful for what I have instead of focusing on what isn't working. I no longer believe that people have to do things my way and that I have to be perfect.
almost anne stuck wrote
Anne wrote it for me and directed, so I was stuck with it, ... We always got along. It's almost gross, I tell you, when I think of how well we get along.
approval
I think I let go of the need for approval,
help
just help the way you can. It doesn't have to be money. It can be any way that you can.
