happy not obnoxious

"Surround yourself with happy people" -
happy, not obnoxious.

maybe

There's too much scary in possibilities.

It's full of maybe. 

don't starve

Do whatever you want. Be whoever you want to be. 

Just be sure not to starve while you're at it. 

patience

Patience is a horrible virtue.

don't

Don't get mad, get even.
NO, actually you should do both!

laugh it off

C laughs off my fits. I love him more for that.

hush

If I were a learned man,

I would have spoke more often.

 But I only am a fool,

 and silence is solely what I can offer.
