Once upon a time a mother has a baby girl, she is so excited; this little princess will be the ruler of her own world and achieve all her dreams……. This is the reverie of a mother, the child is immaculate and, in the eyes of her mother, nothing can compare to her greatness.

She teaches her princess to, “Be impeccable in your dress when you go out, and always be ready to meet the queen”.

The story continues with the princess dressing spotlessly, matching attire with perfect makeup and flawless skin. She learns that judgement occurs within the first 6 seconds of meeting others. She continues with her life, growing and learning along the way.

Until one day she looks at herself in the mirror and sees her shriveled appearance, she looks sad and mediocre. Her eyes well up with tears; she has forgotten the lesson!

She runs to her mother, “what can I do”, she cries and her mother says, ‘why are you crying, get up and do something about it!”.

The little princess, horrified and upset at her mother’s cruel, uncaring, cold attitude to her plight. She stares at her mother with her big blue eyes in shock and disbelief. Has her mother forgotten who she is? She is the little princess. She believes that her mother owes her the help she deserves.. It entitles her mother to give it to her!
