Mrs Tava with any questions what does it mean to be real some say it happens over time others say it takes love but for 1 little rabbit it All Began on a starry night when a boy received a present wrapped in ribbon and filled with possibility inside was a rabbit soft and still but when the boy picked him up his eyes sparked with life he loved the boy in that instant as the boy hugged him tight the rabbit knew he belonged as the clock ticked on and the boy let out a sleepy yawn he placed the rabbit gently on the floor gave him a soft pat on the head and hurried off to get ready for bed then a bell Echoes through the room the toy stirred some watched with quiet Envy the rabbit was new and already well well another fuzzy face who thinks he's real that's not true he may not be worn but he's already been loved that's more than most the Skin Horse had lived in the playroom for a very a long time his saddle was worn through with holes his tail pulled thin and Tangled but he was wise soft-spoken they only say that because they want to be real but they're scared they never will be being real it isn't about how you look or What You're Made Of it happens when someone truly loves you not just for a little while but for a long long time after the Skin Horse spoke the boy came in and picked up the rabbit holding him close as he can him to bed the rabbit thought about the conversation he had with the Skin Horse and quietly wondered would he ever be real to the boy each day the boy and the rabbit went on wonderful adventures Flying high in the sky traveling to different islands and going to the Moon he played and played seasons of laughter and days that seemed to never end but then the boy began to leave for longer and longer and their Adventures slowly began to fade the rabbit began to sit alone the days felt longer and the room much quieter until 1 day the boy returned but he was much older now as he picked up the rabbit he remembered all the adventures they once had as the boy held the rabbit something shifted did he let go and the rabbit fell down into a box and the Box kept going and going until there was nothing left rabbit stayed in the Box asking the same question over and over why did the boy go was I not real after all just when everything felt forgotten a light flashed from it a golden bigger reached out and gently picked him up it was a girl with kind eyes and gentle hands she held him the way the boy once did and in that moment the rabbit felt something he hadn't in a long long time he felt real and standing just behind her was the boy not quite a boy anymore but his eyes still full of something familiar he watched as the girl hugged the rabbit full of joy and in that moment the rabbit knew he had been loved once and now he was loved again these are your lessons for today have a fabulous day
