Hello All, It's Friday December 5th, 2025. 

Have a weekend as fabulous as you are and smile so much that your face hurts.  A reminder that you were built differently.  Stop trying to fit in, when you were clearly born to stand out.  You were never meant to blend-in, you were made to stand out. 

Your strengths, resilience and unstoppable drive set you apart.  While others may follow the beaten path, you carve your own, turning challenges into steppingstones and dreams into reality.  This is a reminder that you are not like the rest.  You think bigger, push harder, and rise higher.  When the world doubts you, prove them wrong.  When obstacles appear, break through them - Unknown   

In this crazy world that's trying to make you like everyone else, find the courage to keep being your awesome self. And when they laugh at you for being different , laugh back at them for being the same.  You are YOU and that's your superpower. I see you. You are enough and I love you.
