When I fall Christina tells me to Fight.
When I am sad, Alanis Comforts Me.
When I feel like no one understands,
Mary J Blige is telling me that in fact, yes, she does.
In my most powerful moments,

Cyndi Lauper lets me know that my true self is colorful and beautiful.

a single bud will brave the harsh elements of winter
and come out a beautiful Rose in Spring.
