“All I wish for the stray cats is that they have food to eat, to be safe, to be healthy so that they can grow old here. Everyday i pray for that. Without fail, on the train, on the bus, I will pray for that.” - Auntie Jenny

Where will this paper plane takes me? What if it rains? Is this the right flight for me? And the wind says: “You just have to stop worrying so much and enjoy the flight.” “Life is not a matter of milestones, but of moments.” – Rose Kennedy
