When you bloom, you make us more beautiful.

Your greatness leaves an impression.

Your presence shifts our thinking.

Your blooming makes us better.

And you cause us to love one another more willingly.

Your blooming breathes life into what was once dead.

You expand us.

Your bloom is beauty with no makeup.

You make us feel more like our true selves.

Keep blooming. ‘Cause when you bloom…we bloom too.
