THE

If you’ve ever had to lie or keep something about yourself secret, then you know what it is like to be in the minority and be judged for it. Those judgments aren’t always big and obvious – sometimes it is just as simple as the way someone phrases a common thought or concern. Being different is OKAY and should never feel like a trap.
