promise
there is a quality of innocence that is infectious.
a throw away line, a small jibe in response to a question, taken at face value and repeated. the wonderful sweetness of the misunderstanding is in itself so enticing, so much better than the slightly sarcastic original, that it is inspiring.
this inspiration can become something to live up to, the line turn into a mantra, a promise to be upheld, a gift to be honoured.
