Teach, Learn, Share

walk in the rain
smell the flowers
stop along the way,
build sandcastles,
find out how things work,
tell stories,
say the magic words,
trust the universe.
-bruce williamson

let your past make you better not bitter

be yourself; everyone else is already taken.
-oscar wilde

it's going to be alright.
