You Are Unique

Everybody is different,
nobody is perfect...
but that's what makes
our very existence so wonderful.

It's the little imperfections
and adorable idiosyncrasies
that truly define who we are.

Our time on Earth
is precious...
life is precious;
*you* are precious!

You're beautiful,
special, amazing and unique.
And you must never think otherwise!
