SYNOPSIS

Imagine a magic mirror that you look into to discover how truly wonderful you are. That is the kind of mirror that Betty Peck, a kindergarten teacher with more than 50 years experience, had in all of her classrooms. Whenever one of her students felt worried or unsure, Betty would gently guide the student to look into the magic mirror and say, "How could you forget how wonderful you are?!" In this short film, this wise woman, now well into her 90's, encourages us to have just such a magic mirror in every kindergarten, every household and every garden.

In that way we can all say, "Thank you for all the magic moments that make it possible for me to stand here and feel how truly wonderful I AM."

Learn more about Betty Peck and the magical way of living  that she inspires.
