There's this little girl, the most fascinating girl I know. She's deserving of a million yeses in a world apt to tell her no. No, she can't excel or be her authentic self. No, she can't stand out or go against the crowd. I wrote this poem for her, and I hope she digests every word. I wrote this poem for the girl who can defeat the world. I hope she hears this affirmation if ever she doubts herself. I hope she believes this truth when presented with something else. You are good enough, brave enough, smart enough, pretty enough, and so much more than enough. You can be whoever you choose; it's my hope you always choose you.
"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
