When I was just three years old, I didn't feel like I belonged at home nor at my new kindergarten. One day, when the other children considered playing pirates, I wanted to join, but didn’t know how to contribute to the play.
I quietly picked pen and paper and drew a flag for our plain table. When the kids realized I drew it, not one of the adults - everything shifted. We were excited, as the plain table turned into a ship in our imagination. All of us became pirates for that day. ⚓️
