Lizpixie Much love from Australia, any sort of bigotry comes from fear and we must be brave enough not to let our fears overwhelm. I'm so sorry this happened to you, but proud of you for not letting it define you.❤️❤️❤️ 8y
Trav Thank you Shawn for sharing your story. I'm incredibly sorry this happened to you, it makes me feel sick to my stomach that someone can do such a thing to another human being. I'm glad you didn't let that horrible moment take over your life and define you as a person. Solidarity and hugs to you and really looking to *hopefully* meeting you soon when I head over to Japan. 8y
