0:00.0 | You know, some of us, you know, we have soft skin, soft skin. |
0:06.0 | And I know society kind of demonizes those who are, you know, sensitive. |
0:12.0 | Those who feel deeply, feel life, care about life, those with soft skin. |
0:25.8 | But I think we simply just don't understand yet the power behind soft skin. |
0:28.8 | Soft skin doesn't mean weak skin. |
