First steps are always the hardest but until they are taken the notion of progress remains only a notion and not an achievement.

Rainbows introduce us to reflections of different beautiful possibilities so we never forget that pain and grief are not the final options in life.

If life is a birthday cake let my face be smeared with its icing of cognac and kindness.
