Grateful for the Journey: Celebrating the Special People in Our Stories

β€œMy story is the average story. It’s just filled with special people. What am I without them?”

– Pharrell Williams

Pharrell Williams is a singer, writer, and producer who enjoyed a remarkable year with his song β€œHappy” topping charts in 24 countries. He credits his success to what he calls the β€œalignment of stars”—a reminder that his achievements are the result of many factors, and for which he is profoundly thankful.

His testimony reminds us how deeply we depend on one another. Special people help us grow, and better still, we can be those special people who help others along their journey.
