【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 ruelly as a kid. It wasn39。t fair, I knew, but that was just the way it was. Luckily, I was taught at a very young age a very important lesson. I am different and that39。s Okay—I39。m unique and I matter. No one could ever take that away from me. I knew this then, and I know this now. That alone helped me through the frustrations and heartaches of normal life. When I was in junior high school, I realized something else that helped me cope. Most teasing came from one of two places—people who were either jealous or ignorant (愚昧). I couldn39。t change the way they were, but I could change the way I felt. I was not going to feel bad because of their ignorance or jealousy. It wasn39。t worth it. Realizing this didn39。t stop them, or change the fact that these ments hurt. It did, however, give me a way to understand these people and deal with their treatment in a way that was okay for me. These things still happen today. It will probably happen the rest of my life. I will always be 7 feet, 6 inches ( meters) tall. I wouldn39。t change that for anything. People will always look because it is not every day that you see someone that tall. I learned that at a young age and I now try to teach my own children that they are unique and they matter. That is the message I give to you. Regardless of your race, religion, background, or circumstances ... Being different is okay.（1）The author mentioned his hometown to show us _______.
