Life lessons Iāve learned from the men of Queen
Brian: Itās cool to be smart, to love math and science, to look up at the stars. Struggling with a mental illness doesnāt make you weak or unloveable. Itās cool to care about social issues, other people, animals, the planet. We all make mistakes; itās how you move forward that matters.
John: Itās okay to be introverted, to be quiet, to only speak when you have something to say. Donāt be afraid to stand up for yourself if people donāt listen. Itās cool to be a homebody, to find joy in your partner and children. Love your friends fiercely, even if it hurts sometimes. Itās okay to grieve in your own way. Dance like no one is watching.
Freddie: Itās cool to be yourself, no matter who that is. Be kind, be a mentor, be a peacemaker, take others under your wing. You are never alone. If you have a dream, donāt give up: live it, breathe it, pour everything you have into it. Donāt settle for less than true love. Live without regrets.
Roger: Itās okay to be loud, to be fearless, to be outspoken about things that matter. Take risks. Make friends. Collect new experiences like souvenirs. Donāt let anyone dismiss your point of view. Protect those you love with your life. We only get so much time here on Earth; have fun with it.Ā
