Child, never be ashamed to be yourself! You are a completely original, unique creation! Nobody walks like you. Nobody sings like you, no one dances, no one plays in the park like you do. You have the right to your thoughts and the right to your feelings, the right to your desires and aspirations. You have a right to your joy and sorrow. You have the right to your YES and the right to your NO, the right to speak the truth, walk your own path and celebrate it.

You have the right to screw it up, the right to mess, fail and try to recover and make mistakes again.
There is tremendous power in being yourself, child, to breathe as you breathe, to move at your own pace, to feel how you feel. There is power in your song, and there is power in your silence. Never lose touch with this power, even if the world belittles you and forces you to abandon it! Never be ashamed of your strength!
Trust yourself. And when you can't trust yourself, know that you can trust your doubts too. Be closer to yourself.
I am always with you, child, closer than breathing. My voice will never leave you, even if you are very old; inside you will always be a precious child.
