Question

【题目】Dear Seth,

You’re only three years old, and at this point in your life you can’t read, much less understand what I’m going to try to tell you in this letter. But someday, when you’re ready, I hope you will find some wisdom and value in what I share with you.【1】

There will be people in your life who won’t be very nice .They’ll tease you or try to hurt you because you’re different.

Be open to life anyway
