The unique thing about these particular people is that they are fully and utterly themselves, and nobody can take that away from them.

I want to decide that for myself.” And so, here are the world’s Top 9 Coolest People as well as some honorable mentions.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating.
