Right now, a nasty rumor is being spread about a teenage girl, and she is really letting it get to her. It's getting to her so much, that she doesn't want to go to school and face her classmates. She doesn't want to deal with the pain of being laughed at, or hear whispers as she walks down the halls. She wonders what everyone is thinking of her, and wants to crawl into a fetal position on her bed and cry for days straight.
But at the same time, right now, a nasty rumor is being spread about a different teenage girl. One who realizes that her worth is not defined by what others say. Tomorrow, despite said rumor, she will go to school. She knows her classmates will snicker and whisper to each other as she walks down the hall, and yet she will walk down the hallway with her head held high, remembering the words of Mohadesa Najumi: "The woman who does not require validation from anyone is the most feared individual on the planet."
