Accepting You

Find the 'you' within
You are an individual
we are to be who we are made to be
It's okay to be different
Do not be afraid

It is only in tumbling we learn to walk
in falling off a bike we learn to ride
When we understand 
we don't need to try to be someone else
We will find a peace in our acceptance
