“Like the moon, 
come out from behind the clouds! Shine.”
- Gautama Buddha
 

Whether your light is like that of the sun, the moon, a distant star, a nearby planet, or the light of a candle, let the best of you, the real you, shine.

May your light touch hearts and brighten the lives of many. 

In this way, we can each nurture hope and build peace in the world every day.

With love and courage,

Charlene
