It was up to each of us to accept or challenge the role we were cast into, to determine for ourselves and to make the world see that what is inside of us – our beliefs and dreams, how we love and express that love, the things that we can actually control – is more important than the outward traits we had no say in. That we are not what we look like but what we do with what we have, what we make of what we are given, how we treat others and our planet.
