Many kids think they are too common. They think they are not the prettiest and smartest. Sometimes kids don’t know how special they are. When they see outstanding(杰出的)athletes(运动员)or cool stars, they often think: Am I outstanding? What am I going to be when I grow up(长大)?
Growing up means understanding(懂得)what you can do and what you can offer to the world. When you are young, you don’t see that. But when get older, you may know that by being yourself, you do offer something to other people.
Maybe you aren’t the best, but that doesn’t make you “not special” Think about your friends. Write down some things that you like about them. Think about why you are friends. You are going to know that in the end, though they aren’t the smartest or the prettiest or the most talented, they are great in their way. And they feel just the same as you.
In fact it is great to be the best at something, but it’s OK if you can’t. If you just live our life and try hard, you are still pretty amazing(令人惊异的).And you can make your dream come true.
