Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect, it means you have decided to look beyond imperfection.

I had no idea. I'm glad he's gone public with it though. The more that celebrities reveal these things the more awareness the public may have.

I can't believe how many people I've met who have no idea what epilepsy is.

I had no idea about Neil Young either. He is a great artist! He spent a lot of his early years living here in Winnipeg. He's a legend here.

Also from Winnipeg, The Guess Who. (American Woman) What a great band.

I'm getting off topic, sorry.

Danny Glover had epilepsy too apparently.

Also Julius Caesar, Napoleon, and Socrates.
