O Espelho da Maria
Maria, a thoughtful and introverted young girl, feels invisible at school. Her struggle for acceptance leads her on a journey of self-discovery with the help of a magical mirror. Can Maria find wisdom and strength within herself to change her world?
Maria's mornings at home were comforting, filled with her parents' warm hugs. But school was different. She felt invisible, like no one noticed her. " - Why don't they like me?" Maria wondered aloud. Every day, she hoped her friends would notice her, but they never did. Her heart felt heavy with the loneliness.
Maria tried joining her friends during recess, but they never waited for her. " - Wait for me!" she called after them, but they didn't hear. Maria's sadness grew as she failed to catch up. " - Why can't they see me?" she asked herself. She felt like she was fading away.
Each day presented new challenges, making Maria feel smaller. She tried to speak up in class, but her voice seemed to vanish. " - Can anyone hear me?" she whispered in frustration. Even when she answered questions correctly, her efforts went unnoticed. Maria began to doubt herself more and more.
Feeling overwhelmed, Maria considered giving up on trying to fit in. " - Maybe I'm just meant to be alone," she sighed. Her heart ached from trying so hard with no results. She began to lose hope in ever being seen or heard. The weight of loneliness was unbearable.
One evening, Maria's mother noticed her daughter's sadness. " - Maria, what's wrong?" she asked gently. Maria poured out her feelings, and her mother handed her a mirror. " - Look, Maria. What do you see?" her mother encouraged. " - I see me," Maria replied, confused. Her mother explained, " - The love and strength you seek are within you."
With her new understanding, Maria began to see herself differently. She smiled more, and soon others noticed her too. " - Hi, Maria!" a classmate greeted her warmly. Her confidence grew, and so did her friendships. Maria realized she was never invisible, just waiting to be seen by herself first.
