To Those Who. . .

     To those who ever doubted us, to those who ever looked down on us, and to those who never believed in us. You do not know where we came from. You do not know what we been through, what we had to go through to get that grade, what we had to do to get to where we are today. So please, don't belittle us. Don't ever put us down, don't ever feel bad for us. And don't think you understand what we've been through. You will never know what's like to have to live like we do. We worked hard for what we have. We did everything we could just to be here. We gave our strongest effort. And you can never take that away from us. All we ask of you is for your respect. Nothing more, nothing less.

Sincerely,
    The Weirdo, The Nerd, The Tomboy, The Queer, That Boy Who Sits Behind You in Homeroom, The Quiet Girl, and everyone else who has ever felt discouraged based on their appearance, or their voice, or the shoes they wear, the clothes they buy.
