​Speaker Dr. Michael Fowlin, otherwise known as Mykee, visited WHS on Jan. 21. Hi’s Eye collected the top 10 quotes from his performance.

2. “I don’t want to play that game. I don’t want to cross you out because you’re not like me. Could you imagine if in first grade we were taught to smile at things that were different instead of crossing them out?”

3. “Don’t believe anyone who tries to take away your story.”

4. “You can never walk in anyone else’s shoes except your own.”

5. “We are so much more powerful than our pain.”

6. “You have to realize that there are other people in this world with you.”

7. “My real question is not what are you going to be later, but who are you right now?”

8. “I don’t think it’s random acts of kindness, I think it’s intentional acts of kindness that we need to practice.”

9. “You don’t need to compare your story to anyone else to feel validated.”

10. “Not only will you heal from your own pain, but one day other people will heal from your pain.”
