We're not all the same. Thank goodness we're not.
Life would be boring, and I mean... a lot.

And so, when we're born, we're supplied at the start
with our own bells and whistles to set us apart.

Think of your bells as the things you do best
things tucked away in your own treasure chest.

Part of growing up is discovering--and embracing--what makes us unique. From different abilities to different personalities, we are all wonderfully made with our own bells and whistles.
