“The problem isn't how you feel, it's that you don't feel SAFE to feel how you feel.”
“Happiness is the feeling we experience when we are too busy to be miserable.”
Tom Masson in: The Century Illustrated Monthly Magazine, Vol. 61 (1901). p. 319.
Quoted in: The New Bajan, (1990) p. 22
“I just feel so fortunate, you know? … I feel so happy.”
Context: I just feel so fortunate, you know? … I feel so happy. I feel so different from how I felt when I was closeted, and to have experiences where I meet people who have been touched in some way by just getting to be who I am is such an incredible experience... I'm in a very fortunate place in my life.
I'm a very privileged person to get to talk about issues, particularly those that affect people much, much more vulnerable to me … I feel really grateful to be in a position where potentially I can do little things or whatever I possibly can to help anyone any way I can.
