I am grateful for the experience via /r/gratitude

I was always bullied because of my skinny built (past) and dar complexion during my school days. Teachers never selected me for participations. But thankfully i had close friends who always pushed me to be better.
Today I am stronger and wiser. Built a career and physique. My complexion doesn't matter at the position i work at. All because I and some amazing people believed in me. I am grateful.
