Your Good Amount of Weird [Episode #64]

Everybody is weird in a good way. Your weird is your superpower. Embrace your weird. Love your weird. Foster your weird. Practice\xa0being weird.

A friend of ours told me a story about her son coming home from school sharing his acrostic (the thing you make where each letter in your name has a word associated with it). His name had a \u201cG\u201d in it and after wrestling with the perfect word to describe himself by only selecting words that start with a \u201cG\u201d he told his mom he wrote

A good amount of weird.\xa0Amen brother.
