“On the day that we met . . . I noticed a crown on the top of your head . . . .I always knew just what your crown meant. It meant that you were MAGNIFICENT.”
“That means you are grand from your toes to your chin. Take a deep breath, and let that sink in . . . . and it means, like a star, YOU WERE BORN TO SHINE . . . .”
“Whatever it is you choose to do, no one can do it exactly like you. . . . And if you fall down, remember your glorious, marvelous crown. It won’t flicker or fade. It won’t dim. It won’t leave. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS BELIEVE.”
“The world is a wonderland waiting for you. And you get to share it with all your friends, too! They each have a crown that is faithful and true. No one’s is brighter, no one’s is duller. It’s only a crown of a different color.
So sometimes, just every now and then, whisper ‘I believe’ again. Your crown is your best friend forever, by far. It tells the true story of just who you are.”
