How to be human

[athenaltena]

Not sure quite what I mean by that, but it seemed appropriate. I'm not particularly used to being told something that I was finally assured of yesterday by a close family friend.

"I give you the right to be human, to laugh, to cry, to be happy, to feel sad, to feel angry, and to make mistakes again and again and again."

I'd never heard that before. And I must say it was a relief.
