Will Smith: It’s all about helping others

“If there’s a message, it’s ‘you gotta help somebody.’ Even if it’s somebody’s car breaking down, use your cell phone. Something little like that. We gotta help one another to get the quality of life we’re all striving for,” he said in an interview with the Star Tribune.

Should this really be a shock to anyone? I mean, honestly, he may have had a bad reputation when he was younger and rapping, but he was just a kid and has long since grown up.  Having grown up in the spotlight, it shouldn’t be surprising to anyone that he’s making movies that have such a strong message.

“It’s cool to have the goal of being the biggest movie star in the world. But why? It’s been revealed to me that the question is: Whose life is better because you woke up today?”

Everyone needs to ask themselves that question.  Whose life is better because I’m in it.  But also, ask who makes your life better by being in it.  I know that without my husband, mother, friends and family, my life would be so much worse than it is now.  Without some of the people in my life, I don’t know what I would do.

I may not have a lot of people close to me in RL, but I have friends whom I wouldn’t trade for all the money on earth and without them in my life, I’d not be the person that I am today.
