And I know you didn't hear it that way.

And so he really challenged me to open up the treasure chest of my heart and dig through certain gems and certain unexplored items.

and then bring it to the narration.

So I really think that a narration can be different than a reading because one, it's my voice pushing forth my voice.

Two is the style that I write in.

You know, reading the book for me, it was very personal and I felt like I was the only one who could read the story of Just Right.

Yeah.

You know, my mom, she had this saying, she said, you know, the dog or the cat that chases its tail will never catch it.

And there's so many of us who spend lifetimes trying to chase for love.

And, you know, Ma tells Toby, you bought two gifts.

You bought one for your dad and you bought one for uncle.

Go take the socks to uncle.

And Toby discovers that, you know,

It's okay to leave the table when love is not being served.

It's being served somewhere.

So one of the things that I really want, I hope, that young people learn from reading this book is to trust their instincts, their guts, their hearts, and go to their just right people.

Go to their just right places.

Do their just right things.

Another message that I want to share is that I know that the world would be more just right if we all got it just right with the people who are just right in front of us.

Thank you.
