“look at its shape, with vibrant yellows and oranges, a sunflower can brighten your day…it’s as if it is smiling like a happy face painted on the sun…so if you do only one thing all day, let it be to smile, so you can brighten the day of others around you, just like the sunflower”
― Bodhi Smith
Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadow. It’s what sunflowers do. -Helen Keller

“Because somehow, the sun rises each day. Emerging from the horizon, brighter and more beautiful than the previous day. You’ll rise from the horizon too, learning to trust again. Learning to love again. Learning to heal. You’ll emerge so bright that the haters will be blinded. And darling, you’ll be the sun then, bright and beautiful, but they won’t be your sunflowers.”

“When the time has come, every leaf turns to face the sun!
It doesn’t know if it has to, but because the call has reached it:
Not knowing what to expect, it will, move slightly, twist patiently
and try to embrace whatever is coming!
It might be too strong, it might be too weak,
it also might just be perfect!”
