“I am an expression of the divine, just like a peach is, just like a fish is. I have a right to be this way... I can't apologize for that, nor can I change it, nor do I want to. ”
— Alice Walker

Simplified Meaning:
Everyone has their own unique nature, similar to how a peach or a fish is special in its own way. Just like we don't expect a peach to apologize for being sweet or a fish to feel bad for swimming, we shouldn't feel sorry for our own true selves. For example, if you are naturally a quiet person, it's like how a cat is naturally curious; it's simply part of who you are. Embrace your own qualities without feeling guilt or pressure to change. This mindset helps you accept yourself and live with confidence, treating yourself with the same kindness you'd offer to others. Ultimately, it's about recognizing your worth and being proud of who you are.
