you take a girl. average weight, average height, average smile, average tone of voice. you give her a pen.
you give her a pen and tell her she is golden. that she can do anything she puts her mind to and that she is a shooting star and you tell her to collect all of those scratch-and-sniff stickers that her teachers put on her tests. you give her hope and love and anything else good that you can think of.
you tell her she can fly.
you buy her a cape, and when she climbs to the roof and jumps off, only to sprain her ankle, you kiss her.
