We can still all be Superman

When you were little playing Superman, think back: I bet the red cape wasn’t actually a red cape. It was a sheet, or a blanket, or a jacket, or a shirt. Or imaginary. And it probably wasn’t even red. And the red cape didn’t actually make you fly. It just reminded you to believe. It allowed us to close our eyes, and then yes… we flew!

We need to remember this. To close our eyes and put on our red capes and fly.
To believe. To believe in ourselves. We need to remember. Because we forget this simple and basic idea. Because Superman IS going to save our day, yes, absolutely. Superman is coming, in fact, Superman never went anywhere. Superman is you. Superman is me. And Superman is going to save the day, because we are going to save the day. No one else. We can’t forget. Not only can we still be Superman, we ARE still Superman. Sometimes we just need to remember how to put our red capes back on.
