Umbrella
If you are in a storm, let the rain fall as it may, and know that a rainbow awaits you once the clouds go away.
Self-Love
Relief
When you reach the timewhen that light turns on,when you believe the self-reflection,what it tells you, what you see,I hope you find the help you need. We are not put here with thewherewithal to heal,or express how we feel. One generation can’t teach anotherwhen they weren’t taught to dealwith the single hardest thing there is … Read more
For Today

Asymmetry
In a world imperfect,we cannot expect symmetry.For the curved roads and uneven hillsremind us of unpredictability.
