Cat believed in herself. She believed everyone was put here to make a difference in the world, using whatever special talents they had been given. Cat knew she was extraordinary, and she helped others believe they were special too. That was one of Cat's greatest gifts. I guess the difference might be that when I was a little girl, I was told I was special and I believed it.
Some people just take longer to start believing in themselves.
Don't think for a moment that just because Cat knew she was special, and that she was here to make a difference, that her life didn't have lots of ups and downs. Cat just happened to see the beauty in both the highs and the lows. On a rainy day or a sunny day, hot weather or chilly cold . . . Cat could always find something to love and appreciate.
