Did you see the movie Bolt last fall?  Bolt is the story of a dog who believes he is a super-hero with amazing powers because he is on a TV show. He is never allowed to go home with Penny, his co-star. He just goes to his trailer after filming and Penny says good-bye.One day, because of the script, Penny is not allowed to say good-bye to Bolt and Bolt believes she has been kidnapped. He escapes from his trailer, falls into a box and gets sent to New York, where he begins his search to find Penny.

Along the way, Bolt discovers that he does not have amazing powers and that he is not a super-hero. But he remains determined to find Penny. I won’t tell you any more except to say that the movie has a happy ending and is well worth seeing.

As I was watching the movie, I was thinking about me and people in general. I’m not a super-hero and I don’t have amazing powers. But I am smart, determined and loving, just like Bolt.

Who you are is amazing. You have many gifts and talents to share with those around you. And what you do each day is important and makes a difference. You don’t need to be a super-hero with amazing powers. The person you are makes you a super-hero. So find a cape and try it on for size.
