Go Selma! you have broken barriers of “the standard” of the Americam Society. The media in this country makes us believe that taller is better. I have a son who is 6 yrs. old and he has issues in school because of it. I always reassure him that taller doesn’t mean smarter or better, to love ourselves for who we are and that “don’t let anyone make you feel bad about yourself”.
Selma WELL SAID. You deserve everything you have!Anita Rambhajan-Chicago, IL
