You are a gift.

You are a gift to the rest of us.

Never before has God’s image manifested as in you.

We need you. Your spark. Your life. Your energy.

Life is hard. Often we will not be kind to you, because we don’t understand that what makes you different is precisely how you are a gift to us.

Often you will struggle alone, or at least you will feel alone.

But we need you to live. We need to to win. To become even more you. To shine as bright as you can.

It’s not fair, but we need you to be brave and honest and to keep fighting and to ask for help and to press on.

Your courage helps the rest of us be courageous too.

You are a gift.
