I saw her give a talk once and it was inspiring to saw the least.

She came to my school, once that can remember, and gave a speech. Actually, a lot of famous people did. After all, the school's name was Martin Luthur Kigh Jr. High. Coretta Scott King came there EVERY years right up to the year she died.

This description of her quote strikes a cord with me and I find myself striving to reach that goal more and more often as I grow older.

Best known for her roles in films such as "Still Alice" and "Boogie Nights," Academy Award-winning actress Julianne Moore has also authored bestselling children’s books about self-acceptance. The eight installments of her "Freckleface Strawberry" series were inspired by her girlhood as a conspicuous redhead. Like many young people, Freckleface Strawberry gets her ideas about who she wants to be and what she wants to do from looking outward. Moore wants to help kids learn a lesson she's realized with the passing decades. As she mentions in this quote, growing older brings clarity, and once you grasp what you like about yourself, determining your priorities becomes easier.
