Day 108
Being a human #108 Humans are allowed to make mistakes. These mistakes are not losses if you learn from the result. The product of mistakes do not make up the entirety of your story. You are more than your mistakes.

Day 102
Being a human #102 Respect yourself and others. You don’t have to like someone to show them respect. Your actions and words of respect reflect your character values not the recipient’s morals.
