Shrinking yourself, pretending to be small, trying to mask your true glory inorder to come across as humble & accepted by others, is self inflicted harm & sabotage.

For everyone who has ever wondered what those eye scans at the airport (or movies) are about....

Your iris (the colored part of your eye) is so specific, it identifies you.

Isn’t that cool? @ Victoria Island, Lagos https://t.co/AxZrx07pxF

[Childrens Eye Foundation @childrenseyefou]

Your iris (the colored part of your eye) has 256 unique characteristics; your fingerprint has just 40. This is why eye scans are sometimes used for security related purposes.

The main goal of vision screening is to identify children who have or are at risk of developing permanent visual impairment unless treated in early childhood.
