““So many people mean nothing to us, we pass one another by without acknowledgement, without comprehending the gifts many have to offer, if only we slowed down and realised we’re not all so different. My front door isn’t open to everyone, but I can tell a good one when I see them just like I know trouble when it’s staring me in the face.””
