"Even though I try to make it look easy, it's quite difficult being me because, most of the time, my mind seems to work differently to almost everybody else's. For a start, it never stops. I'm most active during the night-time hours, purely out of choice. I have a unique relationship with God, which no-one would understand, least of all my parents. One day, I hope to be remembered as a great journalist, but more importantly, I just want to be remembered at all. In my ideal world: people would be colourblind towards other people so that there would be no racism or discrimination, just a love for human beings and of the gift of life and people wouldn't create labelled boxes and metaphorically stuff other people into them. But, as well as being an idealist, I'm also a realist who realises that this will probably never happen in my lifetime. So, I'll just keep doing what I do whilst I'm still able to do it. Later days, friends."
