Once upon a time, in a quiet little valley, every child was born with a tiny lantern glowing softly inside their chest. No one else could see it, not even grown-up, because each lantern belonged only to the child who carried it. Some lanterns glowed blue like calm water, some glowed gold like morning sunshine, some flickered like fireflies dancing in the dark. One night, a little child named Willow lay in bed and whispered to her lantern. Are you really mine? The lantern glowed a little brighter, warm and steady. A soft voice rose from inside it, not loud, not scary, just gentle like a breeze through a tall grass. I'm yours. I shine for you. I listen to you, I grow with you. But Willow asked, Do I have to show everyone my lantern? The lantern shimmered instead. No. You get to choose. Some parts of you need air, some parts you keep. All of it belongs to you. Willow felt her chest warm like a cozy blanket settling over her heart. The lantern continued. When you feel brave, I glow. When you feel quiet, I glow. When you feel silly, I glow. When you feel unsure, I glow. I'm always with you. Will smiled, closed her eyes, and felt a soft light filling her whole body. Outside the stars twinkled, each one carried its own secret glow, just like Willow. And as she drifted into sleep, her lantern whispered, Your inside world is your treasure. You don't have to show it to everyone. Just keep it safe, keep it warm, and let it shine when you choose. And Willow slept peacefully, her lantern glowing steady and strong.
