The Velveteen Rabbit
Becoming REAL
Name:thevelveteenr
LJ Talk:
Bio:“Real isn’t how you are made. It’s a thing that happens to you. When *someone* loves you for a long, long time not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real. It doesn’t happen all at once. You become. It takes a long time. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But those things don’t matter at all, because once you are real you can’t be ugly, except to people who don’t understand. That’s why it doesn’t happen to people who break easily, or have sharp edges or who have to be carefully kept.”

"Once you are real, you can’t become unreal again. It lasts for always.”
