I'm me. She shared her story about adversity, about being different and how she transformed this to a celebration of difference.
“I’m me.”

It made me look at people different because how people act just because, you know probably because of the color of my skin or how I look. He didn’t like me because, he said it was the way I walked and the way I talked. He said I was different and he didn’t want to talk to me.

It kind of made me hurt but then you know it made me a bigger person. I don’t have to change my life for nobody.

I’m not going to care what nobody thinks. I’m me. I’m different from a lot of people.

I have a stuffed toy I talk to him when I’m lonely and I’ve got nobody to talk to. It is a bear and her name is Ashley. She helps me when I’m sad, mad, happy, even if something good happens.
