In this heartwarming and introspective story, Celine holds a mysterious mirror that has always given her answers to life’s questions—big or small, personal or profound. Every time she asks about her dreams or her path, the mirror provides clear guidance, and she’s come to trust it fully. But when she dares to ask, “Salamin, ano ba talaga ang kasarian ko?” the mirror shows her something different: memories instead of a direct answer. Through these visions, Celine revisits her childhood, teenage years, and young adulthood. As a child, she sees herself happily embracing her feminine identity. As a teen, she starts to realize her attraction to other girls, causing her to question the labels others place on her. By early adulthood, Celine is asking her friends to use they/them pronouns, feeling that neither “girl” nor “boy” completely fits. The mirror finally returns to the present, showing only her reflection—silent, with no clear answer. In this reflective journey, Celine learns that gender is not a fixed concept; rather, it’s fluid and ever-evolving. The mirror doesn’t provide a single answer because gender itself is a journey that changes and grows. Ultimately, Celine understands that she is free to define her own identity, unrestricted by rigid labels. "Salamin, Salamin. Kailan Ako Magiging si Celine" is a tale about embracing one’s evolving identity, learning that true self-acceptance means being open to change, and realizing that gender is a personal journey, as unique and dynamic as the person living it.

Once upon a time, in a bright and bustling village called Breezy Hollow, there lived a curious little fox named Benji. Benji loved to explore, but sometimes his adventures didn’t go as planned. When things got tricky, Benji would feel his chest tighten, his heart race, and his thoughts whirl like a tornado. It made him want to run and hide. One sunny day, Benji’s karate teacher, Master Ling, noticed that Benji seemed restless and worried during practice. Master Ling was wise and kind, and he gently asked, “Benji, is something troubling you?” Benji nodded. “Sometimes I feel like there’s a tornado inside me, and I don’t know how to make it stop.” Master Ling smiled. “I understand. Let me teach you something that can help. It’s called the Calm Breath. This technique has been used for many years to bring peace to the mind and body. Would you like to learn it?” Benji’s ears perked up. “Yes, please!” Master Ling knelt down and explained, “When you feel a storm inside, remember these steps: Top up your breath before you sigh. Feel the calm as it passes by. “Here’s how it works,” Master Ling continued. “First, take a big breath in through your nose, and then take another little sip of air to top it up. Finally, let it all out with a long sigh through your mouth. Try it with me.” Benji closed his eyes and followed the steps: He took a big breath in through his nose. He added a tiny extra sip of air at the top. Then he let out a long, slow sigh through his mouth. “Ahh,” Benji said, feeling his chest relax. The whirling tornado inside him slowed down. “It works!” Master Ling nodded. “It does. This is a gift you can use anytime you feel stressed or scared. Practice it often, and you’ll always have a way to find calm.” From that day on, Benji shared the secret of the Calm Breath with everyone in Breezy Hollow. Whenever his friends felt worried, he’d remind them, “Top up your breath before you sigh!” Soon, the whole village used the Calm Breath to stay calm and happy.
