a princess for a lifetime!

I received a beautifully painted picture from one of my students. It was a picture of two Disney princesses and it was titled "Always dress for a happy ending"! When I read that I fell in love with the saying. What girl doesn't want to feel like a princess? Sometimes, though, I find myself basing that truth on what others think of me or how they treat me. Recently my thoughts have shifted to believing that I am a princess because I believe I am a princess! If I am not "dressing" myself in that "gown" of royalty and the knowledge that I am a child of the King, then even if people do happen to say it or treat me that way, I still won't believe them based on my own view on life. Kindergarten girls particularly are a perfect example of this as they love to dress up as princesses; and they play the part perfectly. They are not viewing the world from any other angle but that of "I am a princess, I am worthy, I am loved." They truly believe they are princesses! On the painting it also quotes "her gown should be as exciting as her wonderful princess life!" I am therefore constantly reminded to "put on my gown" and truly believe that I am a princess and live a wonderful princess life, because I deserve it...and so do you!

  1. Just shared this with a few of my girlfriends, because it's such a good reminder! Us girls need to believe in our inner beauty and know we are loved!

  4. Thank you for sharing this beautiful perspective. Today I'll "dress" as a princess so that I can experience my world through the eyes of my Father.
