No other person could've materialized it than what it should be other than Lin-Manuel Miranda.

[@SP-po1sd]

He created Hamilton and yet he's so humble

[@KherMoon]

[@karensternad2321]

I think Jonathan Larson himself would be very proud.

[@NellieKAdaba]

I should hope so. The movie version of Rent was grat.

Lin will never rest on those Hamilton laurels!

I totally second Andrew Garfield as Fiyero in Wicked! That would be spellbinding casting!

What a genius

[@Taigan_HSE]

It’s so weird to think he was only 14 when Larson died.

If you give a bad option to those who watch the video on social media. The money from those who click badil goes to the government relief fund and the money from those who click on good makes the video .People can control themselves until they show social media sentiment. Will change.There are even fans of buyers and killers and today it's dangerous on social media.Their money that beats the bad should go to the relief fund of the country

God sent his only son Jesus to die on the cross for our sins spread the gospel and fully surrender your life to God if you want to go to heaven God bless you all amen and don’t use God or Jesus’s name as a curse word and try not to sin that means don’t say oh my god or God dammit
