All of humankind needs food, clothing, shelter, love, and acceptance. Of the five, acceptance is the hardest to obtain. We need acceptance. Without it, we are outcasts in our world. Gatekeepers, nameless and faceless, for the most part, determine acceptance. Their measuring tool is whatever social media tells them it is. Do not fall prey to Gatekeepers and their social media masters. Accept and love yourself. Great strength begins here.
