Found a great quote yesterday. In regards to his parents…

” I know that if one of them had been any different, it would have sent my life into a spiral of misunderstandings and insecurities about the world and about the relationships I have. ninety percent of the people I meet are dealing with issues they can’t overcome because of bad parenting. That’s the truth. There’s that side of you that says, ‘Time to get over the hurt and move.’ “It’s hard to do. So you just hang on to the emotion that this one didn’t love me, or why didn’t that relationship last? That stuff stays with you forever. You want to say, ‘Get over yourself! Come on! Time to grow up! Some people are able to do that, but a lot of use remains victims of it. So I was fortunate with my parents. Without them, I would never have been able to be as level headed as I am, considering everything that’s happened to me.” – Leonardo DiCaprio as told to Parade Magazine

Another reason why I simply admire Leo. I feel as if I’m dealing with the people described every single day.
