He said he took to the streets because he believes love is the remedy for a world filled with cruelty, envy, hatred, jealousy, and violence.
"Genuine love, real love, true love that makes us perform an act of kindness because that is contagious. Showing a little bit of compassion to everybody we meet. Instead of trying to change others, we can change ourselves, we can change our hearts."
