A few days ago I turned 44 years old and today I listen to this song for the very first time, and I couldn’t stop crying while I was on the train to my house... I’m latino, inmigrant, gay and old... many times I have felt invisible in a city with millions of people around me, but tonight I saw myself in your song.
Maybe you never read this but today you made me feel human again for 4:58 minutes...
Thank you Brandi... ♥️

I'm a School Counselor and used this video as part of a Social Emotional Lesson for Middle School this morning. Tough crowd. This video is absolutely disarming and powerful. It has a great representation of ages and cultures/skin tones that is inclusive and reaches the empathy even Middle Schoolers can access.

To the young people watching this video and listening to this song, REMEMBER THIS.
The bullies are ALWAYS more miserable than you. They are broken, sad, lonely and empty, and the only thing that makes them feel better is to try to make YOU as miserable as THEM with their ugly words and actions.
Keep fighting through the tears and you will come out on the other side more strong and confident and beautiful than you could ever imagine. You are worth the fight ❤❤❤❤

I’m a transgender youth in the south, texas to be exact. I just turned 18 and i’m so scared to be an adult here, it feels like everyone here hates me and who i am, what i am, every inch of me. but this song gives me hope, makes me feel like maybe, just maybe it’s worth it, to keep on trying and maybe get somewhere better. I’m terrified of violence, to use public bathrooms, to speak or for my binder to show. i hope it’s going to be okay, that i’ll live a long happy life where people don’t hate my identity and see me for who i am. Thank you for this song, and thank you for the hope and peace it brings me.❤️🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈

It’s 1:30am in Texas right now. I’m laying on the couch in tears feeling like a failure as mother. My precious son is 9. He’s autistic and he’s perfect in my eyes. He’s curled up at my feet. It’s the closest he’s come near me lately. I see so much beauty in him. I can see the world through his big blue eyes. But I also see his pain. And I see the way the world looks at him. This song. This perfectly written string of words fills my heart with hope. It feels me with power. I sing your music daily and just finished your audio book. When it was over my heart broke a bit. It was if , for awhile I was hearing a friend talk to me about their life. It made me feel less alone. I just want to say thank you for your words. For your voice. For sharing your soul with us.
