When you're different, sometimes you don't see the millions of people who accept you for what you are. All you notice is the person who doesn't. We can easily forgive a kid afraid of the dark. The real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light. Hope is praying for rain, but faith is bringing an umbrella. The question isn’t who is going to let me; it’s who is going to stop me. If you can’t control what’s happening to you, control how you respond. That’s where your power is.
