Fitness starts at home. What you eat is what you will look, just as what you sow is what you reap. Eat good food: eat fruits, vegetables, healthy grains, and don't go for sweet and trite food.
Trees and plants always look like the people they live with, somehow.
I don't look to find an educated person in the ranks of university graduates, necessarily. Some of the most educated people I know have never been near a university.
I see the world being slowly transformed into a wilderness; I hear the approaching thunder that, one day, will destroy us too. I feel the suffering of millions.

Teenagers talk about the idea of having each other's 'full attention'. They grew up in a culture of distraction.

She even rescues the prince. And that makes her a rare fish, indeed, in the world of preschool culture.
