As you look around this great wide world, you see a broad spectrum of humanity. People of all shapes, sizes, weights, and colors. It is precisely this bountiful variety that makes us so very interesting, so very distinctive, and so very beautiful, to behold. So if you ever find yourself looking in the mirror and focusing on all the tiny little things that make you unique, don't you dare look at them as flaws. They are an amalgam of wonderful little mysteries and histories that hold the key to exactly who you are. And let's be honest: would you rather be someone else? Someone who hasn't gone through what you've gone through? Someone who hasn't lived your life? Someone who is, quite simply, not you? We think not. You be you.

So put on your adult shoes and let's deal with the past so we can move on to the future. Stay informed, stay safe, and stay healthy out there, folks!
