Dream Big: "The First Step" | African American Girl Wall Art

"Dream Big"
Sullivan Art Studio™ Original Fine Art

She wasn't supposed to be in there.

But her big sister's shoe closet called to her — and she answered. She slipped her small feet into those bigger shoes and stood up tall and felt something shift. This is what it feels like. This is who I'm going to be. Not someday in a vague way — someday soon, someday certain, someday exactly like this but bigger.

Her sister didn't know. But if she had — she would have smiled. Because every big sister was once a little girl sneaking into somebody else's shoes, dreaming the same dream.

This is Black girlhood passing itself forward. The dream that travels from sister to sister, generation to generation, one borrowed shoe at a time.
