Take some inspiration from sunflowers… Dig down to find what you need to thrive. Stand tall. Always seek the light. Continue to shine even when you've been cut down. Provide sustenance to those around you. Know that what you leave behind is the promise of something beautiful yet to be.

Stormy weather
