A fish that is afraid of drowning in a river is ignorant of its gifts.
~ Matshona Dhliwayo
A diamond earns its sparkle from the pressure it endures.
It is in the storm, not the calm, that a rainbow is born.
A determined seed cannot be hidden from the world, not even by dirt.
If you cry in the rain, only the sky will see your tears.
Pressure is an artist, diamonds are its masterpiece.
Train the ears to hear more, the eyes to see more, the hands to do more, the feet to accomplish more, the mind to think more, the heart to feel more, and the soul to love more.
If you have shed a thousand tears, expect a thousand blessings.
The greatest gift you can open is your arms to someone in need.
A ship will never sink if God is on it.
A flower that refuses to bloom robs the world of its beauty.
One kind deed is more beautiful than a thousand good intentions.
Throwing dirt at a diamond does not diminish its value.
A heart of gold is more precious than a necklace of diamonds.
A caterpillar knows it's a butterfly, even if the whole world tries to convince it that it's just a worm.
Tears water the eyes when they have been dry for too long.
Stars cannot achieve their highest potential without the dark.
A star is a rock that could no longer hide its light from the world.
A diamond's happy ending is on a crown, but its beauty was formed in dirt.
The saddest day in the woods is when birds run out of happy songs to sing.
The moon only dares compete with the stars when the sun is in its corner.
A seed only realizes its potential the day you bury it.
The entrance to the world is inside your mind, the entrance to the universe is inside your soul.
Fear takes you low, faith takes you high, but love takes you everywhere.
When God wants to give you a miracle, He first gives you a problem.
Fortify your mind, bullet proof your heart, strengthen your soul.
Don’t let past disappointments rob you of future happiness.
We are all born stars, but some refuse to shine and others make it their life’s mission to glow.
Storms are rainbow’s inside out.

A star is a rock that could no longer hide its beauty from the world.
Rainbows can’t rise without storms.
The world would have no rainbows if the sky had not storms.
A single candle has the power to light up a room, a single star has the power to light up the sky, and a single soul has the power to light up the world.
A flower must bloom inside first before revealing its beauty to the world.
Looking up at the stars only proves you admire them, but shining your light proves you are like them.
Light does not have to beg darkness to shine.
When I was poor, I was rich because I was happy; when I was wealthy, I was poor because I was sad.
It is impossible for darkness to reign in the presence of a star.
If size really mattered, a match wouldn’t be able to set a forest on fire.
