It's not as steep as it looks. The world has higher mountains. It's not as deep as I think. The ocean has deeper seas. It's not as tough as it feels. I am strong. Albert Einstein once said, "Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving." Through this simple story, a young child learns to continue onwards and achieve her goals.
