Living With Vitiligo
Watch this short video to remind yourself to love yourself and your vitiligo. If others can't accept it, then it's their problem! Good to hear such wise advice even from a young girl

Don't care about everyone's opinion. How you feel about yourself is important. Be you, just the way you are. You are one of a kind. Sometimes people have good intentions, but they don't have your big picture. They don't know your dreams and passions. Follow yourself. Don't let anyone put boundaries up for you. Try what you want to try. Go where you want to go. Be what you want to be.
I don't have a video to share, but I like this quote by Thich Nhat Hanh: “To be beautiful means to be yourself.You don't need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself. If you crave acceptance and recognition and try to change yourself to fit what other people want you to be, you will suffer all your life. True happiness and true power lie in understanding yourself, accepting yourself, having confidence in yourself.”
