“When we love, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too.” 
- Paulo Coelho

So let's love. Let's hope. Let's uplift ourselves and reach for the best within us and around us. Let’s envision better ways ahead and strive toward them.

Always,
Charlene
