Live The Vibrant Life
All flowers are happy in their way,
But dear Helianthus you win the day.
Every aspect of your nature is sunny.

Empathy has a bittersweet twinge.
I know part of your pain because I’ve been singed.

Be content with small steps. That’s all life is. Small steps that you take every day so when you look back down the road it all adds up.
Someday, somewhere – anywhere, unfailingly, you’ll find yourself, and that, and only that, can be the happiest or bitterest hour of your life. ~ Pablo Neruda
Nature designed us to be of good cheer. ~ Douglas William Jerrold
I have chosen to be happy because it is good for my health. ~ Voltaire
