LITERACY
Never forget that you are one of a kind. Never forget that if there weren't any need for you in all your uniqueness to be on this earth, you wouldn't be here in the first place.

In fact, it is always because of one person that all the changes that matter in the world come about. So be that one person. #<Author:0x000055e3535c2858>
