What Makes You Shine?

Hi BRIMI Girls! 

Have you ever stopped to think about what makes you truly shine? It’s not the clothes you wear, the way your hair looks, or even how many friends you have. Your real sparkle comes from within—your kindness, courage, and the way you make others feel special.

Think about this: When was the last time you made someone smile? Maybe it was by helping a classmate with homework, sharing your lunch with a friend, or simply saying something kind. Those little moments might feel small, but they make a big difference. They’re like tiny rays of sunshine that brighten up the world.

Here’s a fun activity: Grab a notebook and write down three things you love about yourself. Not just how you look, but things about your heart and mind. For example:
​

• “I’m a good friend because I listen when others need me.”
• “I’m creative and love making art.”
• “I’m brave when I try new things.”

Every time you feel unsure of yourself, read your list and remind yourself of all the amazing ways you shine.

​Remember, the light inside of you is one of a kind. Let it shine, and the world will shine right back at you.
