Once, we were like little seeds, buried in the dark soil of doubt.
The world whispered stories of what we could never be — too small, too quiet, too ordinary. And some days, we believed it.
But then the sun gently reminded us, "You don’t have to grow all at once.
Just push a little today." So we stretched, even when it hurt.
The rain sang encouragement, "Just a little more."
Day by day, push by push, we grew — stronger, braver, louder.
Until one day, we stood tall, our branches dancing in the wind, realizing something beautiful, our growth didn’t depend on the world’s permission but on our belief in ourselves.
We are still growing, still rising. And every step we take makes space for the next girl to bloom. Let’s keep nurturing our stories and theirs.
Together, we thrive.
