I learned a long time ago the wisest thing I can do is be on my own side, be an advocate for myself and others

And sometimes you realize the value of the rain by knowing how unreliable and vanishing the rainbow is.

A wise woman wishes to be no one’s enemy; a wise woman refuses to be anyone’s victim.

Rainbows exist to prove that beautiful things can happen even after a bad storm.

All great achievements require time.

The rain will pass. Keep your head up. Look for the rainbow.

I am grateful to be a woman. I must have done something great in another life.

Rainbows reminds us that even after the darkest clouds and the fiercest winds there is still beauty.

Loving someone liberates the lover as well as the beloved. And that kind of love comes with age.

Happiness doesn’t always come in pink. Learn to appreciate the rainbow.

I created myself. I have taught myself so much.

I’m not a writer who teaches. I’m a teacher who writes.

I got my own back.

Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.

Life is pure adventure, and the sooner we realize that, the quicker we will be able to treat life as art.

A rainbow would not be without first the rain.
