We
are NOT all the same. I never quite understand people who tell me that
they don't see race or culture. Why not? That's not a negative thing,
unless we react negatively towards it. There are differences. Take for
example, the other day I was performing in an urban school in NYC, and a
girl approached me after my show with tears running down her face. She
said, "Thank you. You made me feel better. All my life, I've been made
fun of because of my weight. I always hated myself because I could never
be like the skinny girls in my school who wear a size 9."
It's all a matter of perspective, isn't it?
