While I have breath, no one will deny you the right to be who you are, a man in full, a full man in every sense. For who can say that your kindness, your generosity, your genuine love of others, your fierce defence even of vulnerable strangers, are not in some hidden and poorly-understood way tied to your size? Perhaps these warm and good qualities which you show are not. But perhaps they are. Is it worth the risk, that our small corner of the world should be a sadder and bleaker place without them? Without all which makes you yourself?
