Storms rock. There's the sunshine afterward to look forward to.

Reach for the Stars..............with a little help...
The journey to achieve excellence or even to improve oneself is not a solitary one. It can be, but it should not be. The journey is made much easier with supportive friends by your side. This song captures the whole essence of it perfectly:
Reach by S Club 7When the world leaves you feeling blue
You can count on me, I will be there for you
When it seems all your hopes and dreams
Are a million miles away, I will re-assure you
We've got to all stick together
Good friends, there for each other
Never ever forget that
I've got you and you've got me, so...
Reach for the stars
Climb every mountain higher
Reach for the stars
Follow your hearts desire
Reach for the stars
And when that rainbow's shining over you
That's when your dreams will all come true
There's a place waiting just for you
Is a special place where your dreams all come true
Fly away, swim the ocean blue
Drive that open road, leave the past behind you
Don't stop gotta keep moving
Your hopes have gotta keep building
Never ever forget that
I've got you and you've got me, so
Reach for the stars
Climb every mountain higher
Reach for the stars
Follow your hearts desire
Reach for the stars
And when that rainbow's shining over you
That's when your dreams will all come true
Don't believe in all that you've been told
The sky's the limit, you can reach your goal
No one knows just what the future holds
There ain't nothing you can't be
There's a whole world at your feet
I said reach
Climb every mountain (reach)
Reach for the moon (reach)
Follow that rainbow
And your dreams will all come true
Reach for the stars
Climb every mountain higher
Reach for the stars
Follow your hearts desire
Reach for the stars
And when that rainbow's shining over you
That's when your dreams will all come true
[Repeat, and then fade to finish]Friends support each other and help each other reach their goals. They believe that their friends will be able to accomplish anything they set their mind to, and aid them in this process towards the finish line.
So people, believe in yourself, your friends, be a friend, and don't be afraid to fail. True friends don't abandon people who fail once. Or twice. Or thrice. Or even four times. And... well, you get the idea.
A friend is someone who will help you move. A real friend is someone who will help you move a body. (Unknown)
Anybody can sympathise with the sufferings of a friend, but it requires a very fine nature to sympathise with a friend's success. (Oscar Wilde)
Consult your friend on all things, especially on those which respect yourself. His counsel may then be useful where your own self-love might impair your judgment. (Seneca)
Friendship make prosperity more shining and lessens adversity by dividing and sharing it. (Cicero)
