"Do we really become real when we have been loved???? The velveteen rabbit wasn't sure at first but in the end.... he learned about the magic. I think- in my adult way- I, too, believe we become real when we are loved. The only difference is that I think we become real when we learn to love and honor ourselves. Beautiful read!!!!!!" — GoldenjoyBazyll (5 out of 5 stars)
