Mihkel is an Estonian poet. From a child, he was teased and labeled as a nerd. His earliest memories of rejection were from a memory in his childhood when he wasn’t included in an activity during a birthday party. It was hard for Mihkel to let go of this feeling, but he decided that he wasn’t going to let words him anymore. He says that if you personally don’t believe in something, then the other people who try to hurt you, don’t hold any power over you. He says that rejection is inevitable, but it doesn’t have to be scary.
