Touching Lives

"During one of the chances that I had to speak, one asked, “Am I disappointed that I did not achieve the dreams that I originally had for myself?” I told them that there are other dreams to be made, there are there are other things to be accomplished. It doesn’t mean that if you fail to make your original dreams a reality then it’s the end of the world. You need to learn to dream other dreams and you need to reach for other things. We can’t all be Manny Paquiao or whatever, we can be other things. You just have to dream other dreams, have a positive attitude towards life. Be the best that you can be and always be good to people regardless of your situation in life, it’s no excuse not be good to other people. You just have to be kind and fair."

- Dickoy, during our interview for Too Rare to be Noticed: A Documentary on Orphan Disorders


Think of someone who has touched your heart dearly on your first conversation. Who seems to have many good things to say - nothing else but good and true. Full of positivism and hope. Who has undergone challenges, but tightly grips onto his Faith. Who loves life, that's why Life is loving him back.

Who has walked places - inside people's soul whom he has touched and moved.

I think of Dickoy. Dickoy is such a man. Inspiring, captivating.

I heart Dickoy :)
