&ldquo;There comes a time when you have to stand up and shout:<br /> This is me damn it! I look the way I look, think the way I think, feel the way I feel, love the way I love! I am a whole complex package. Take me... or leave me. Accept me - or walk away! Do not try to make me feel like less of a person, just because I don&#039;t fit your idea of who I should be and don&#039;t try to change me to fit your mold. If I need to change, I alone will make that decision.<br /> When you are strong enough to love yourself 100%, good and bad - you will be amazed at the opportunities that life presents you.&rdquo;
