I do the very best I can
to look upon life with optimism and hope
and looking forward to a better day,
but I don't think there is anything
such as complete happiness.
It pains me that there is still
a lot of Klan activity and racism.
I think when you say you're happy,
you have everything that you need
and everything that you want,
and nothing more to wish for.
I haven't reached that stage yet.
