Very few of us are as self-aware as you, which I believe is the key to happiness (or striving in the right direction).
Todd Brison you are anything but average.

Kara, thank you so much.

This really means a lot to me. Empathy, I think, is another key to my being as happy as I am. Other people have such a difficult life, and all the things I would idolize — money, fame, etc. fall by the wayside with the realization that what I have is all I’ll ever need and more than some will ever get.

Past this point, it’s all a bonus.
