From the first time I heard this song I modified the words to suit the teachings of my own mama.
When I was just a little girl
I asked my mama what will I be?
Will I be pretty?
Will I be smart?
Here's what she said to me:
What you choose will be,
Whatever you want you can be.
The whole world is yours, you see ...
What you choose will be.
There was no 'que sera sera' about it. We didn't need to ask what the future would hold. It would be as we made it to be.
She was right.
She didn't just tell me.
She showed me.
