A life is like a cherry blossom tree. They bloom and they die. When they do, someone will ask "What color was its bark?" and no one will know for certain. The cherry blossom tree is gone. But we know it was here.
The cherry blossoms bloom for only a few days. Their lives, like ours, are short. But the only thing that's important, is how beautifully you bloom. You will change many lives and you will leave many marks.
Only
you
can
make
yourself
a
beautiful
BLOSSOM.
I don't even really know what to say here except: "thank you". Thank you for writing this... it is a gift that you give to the world. So true and beautiful and wise.
