(4/4) -It's the what ifs that can kill. With plenty of regrets you can dwell on what could've been done different. But the only way things can be changed, is by changing the future.- "I was a single parent from when my son was 5-20. He's about 40 now. I knew things had to change. My addiction killed almost everything I had. Lost all my money and even a relationship with my son. Later I discovered that what was killing me wasn't the crack. It was my attitude. So in '87 I put t

(3/4) -Life is full of regrets. Everyone has them. Some have more than others. It's how you live with the regrets that defines you.- Coming back from a war can create an emotion and feeling most won't ever have to bear. It takes its toll though. "I've had a lot tackle me at once. When my son was born, I was overwhelmed with happiness, but pieces of the war were still with me. A couple years later my mother passed from cancer. I fell with sadness, but I also felt relieved." A

(2/4) -Almost everyone's afraid of being judged. However, there's a freeing feeling to be had when you can fully disclose yourself and have no regard for the judgement from other people- I felt it took a while for me to get to the good stuff. That made it even more rewarding though when I finally got there. "I'm retired. Did 41 years climbing power poles. It was rewarding, but some of the hardest work I've done." I could sense that he's done more than that though. So I kept a

(1/4) -This is Willy. One of the most interesting people I've met. He's done more than most can in 5 life times. Willy has experienced war, love, hate, success, failure, achievement, disappointment, happiness, and sadness. Being a person who's seen the world's best and the world's worst is a recipe for a story everyone wants to hear. However, seeing and being so much costs a great deal. Here's some of life's greatest moments, and some of life's worst.

(4/4) -Some people may look and see a weakness. They may judge. But what's underneath is the exact opposite. So take some time, and see how beautiful she is. Here, I'll show you. She's filled with morals and lessons that the common person may not have. Despite being engulfed in flames, she's actively making the world a better place. "In rehab you learn a lot about yourself. Being surrounded by negative things I don't think I could ever see who I was. Rehab opened my eyes. I f

(3/4) -Not all grow up with the support they deserve. Some have to learn to do it themselves. There's no good example around you to grow from, you feel like you have nothing at all. Just don't give up on yourself. You'll get there.- "My parents were drug dealers. I was pretty young when this was happening. I felt I should be like other people my age. Playing sports, discovering new friends, introducing a boyfriend to my parents. Instead, I sat on a couch watching as my parent

Felicia, (2/4)
(2/4) -It can be hard to see, and even harder to feel. What looks and feels like failure, can actually be a success in progress. The people who change the world experience some of the most complex hardships. And those that succeed arn't afraid to fail, they're afraid to quit.- "I'm studying psychology. A lot people actually study psychology. But I have a very specific reason to do so. I want to target youth who are susceptible to drugs." She was one of the most quiet people I

(1/4) -Greatness is everywhere. It's in the streets, in your mirror, in the light, and even in the dark. It's the girl in this picture.- On the days that I wander the streets to find greatness, I find myself worried if I'll stumble upon the right person. But, everyday that I've gotten up and tried, it hasn't just been rewarding, it's been life changing. The world is a good place. However, we'd all be hiding if there was no confession to some of the more darker areas. But in t

(5/5) -Love is patient. Love is kind. It does not envy. It does not boast. It is not proud. It protects, trusts, and hopes.- You can have a lot of things. A new car, a nice house, a financially secure future, even a whole bunch of friends. However, where many fail is when they think these things will provide that feeling of love. But, love is when all the superficial items in your life disappear; money, your home, a secure future. And because of the love you have wrapped arou

Ariana and Jeff, (4/5)
(4/5) -It's an 'Ah, I'm finally home feeling'- I asked what it felt like to see each other just before the wedding. Their response showed the feeling they have not just on that day, but everyday. And when I got to see their expression for seeing each other on the wedding, it created an understanding, of what it really looks like to feel complete. Her: "In the midst of all the stress a wedding can have, seeing them is more calming than anything." The wedding can get stressful,
