The world is quick to notice people, but noticing is not the same as seeing.
We notice appearances.
We notice differences.
We notice what stands out.
Yet to truly see someone is to ๐ฎ๐ง๐๐๐ซ๐ฌ๐ญ๐๐ง๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ข๐ซ ๐ก๐ฎ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ข๐ญ๐ฒโ๐ญ๐จ ๐ซ๐๐๐จ๐ ๐ง๐ข๐ณ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ข๐ซ ๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ ๐ ๐ฅ๐๐ฌ, ๐๐ฆ๐๐ซ๐๐๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ข๐ซ ๐ ๐๐ง๐ฎ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ฌ๐๐ฅ๐, ๐๐ง๐ ๐ก๐จ๐ง๐จ๐ซ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ก ๐จ๐ ๐ฐ๐ก๐จ ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ฒ ๐๐ซ๐. And perhaps that is one of the purest forms of love.
This ๐๐ซ๐ข๐๐ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ญ๐ก reminds us of the importance of being seen. It is a ๐๐๐ฅ๐๐๐ซ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐จ๐ ๐ข๐๐๐ง๐ญ๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐๐ฌ, ๐๐ฎ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ง๐ญ๐ข๐๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐๐ฌ, ๐๐ง๐ ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฏ๐ ๐ข๐ง ๐๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐ข๐ญ๐ฌ ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ฆ๐ฌ. It is a reminder that every person deserves the freedom to live truthfully and to be recognized not for who others expect them to be, but for who they truly are.

And so, may we all learn to say and receive these words: "๐ฐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐."
