For everything wrong with the world right now, there’s at least one thing very right, and that is Lin-Manuel Miranda. In addition to being amazingly talented, he’s just an all-around good person. If the world were filled with Lins, it would be a much better place. Here are the top reasons why Lin is such a wonderful human being.

1. Hamilton


I mean, I think this one speaks for itself. That was nice of him.

2. His freestyles



Utterly genius every single time.


3. His lovely, lovely tweets

Lin's Twitter makes us laugh, think and feel like we matter.


4. His admiration for the people he works with



We all need someone in our lives who looks at us the way Lin looks at pretty much everyone.

5. He’s true to his roots



That he refers to his Twitter followers collectively as Twitterico is pretty telling, not to mention his advocacy for Puerto Rican debt relief.

6. He’s gracious toward his fans



I think Ham4Ham highlights this best. A ton of people showed up for their first lotto and he said, “I’ve gotta do something to entertain the masses.” And no matter how busy he's been, he's still made time to do just that.


7. He uses his platform for good

He just released a song and has sold t-shirts featuring fan designs of quotes from his Tonys speech to benefit the victims of the Orlando shooting.


8. He’s not your traditional theatre star, but he’s paved his own way

He's not much of a singer, but he's applied his talents in such a way that he doesn't need to be to secure his place as a massive Broadway star.

9. He can rock the pigtails



Truly majestic.

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
