STARS AND DANDELIONSDeep in the blue sky, like pebbles at the bottom of the sea, lie the stars unseen in daylightuntil night comes. You can't see them, but they are there. Unseen things are still there. The withered, seedless dandelionshidden in the cracks of the roof tilewait silently for spring, their strong roots unseen. You can't see them, but they are there. Unseen things are still there. Misuzu Kaneko
About This Quote

Stars are the most beautiful things in the universe. They are the center of our galaxy, they are what makes us feel connected with other people, they are what gives us light at night, and they are what light up the night sky. Stars are everywhere. They are right outside your window, now that you look up, they give you hope when you're down, and serve as an example to anyone who's ever felt lost.

They are not just for astronomers anymore. And dandelions? Are flowers that grow in your yard? Are they just there for looks? Nope. They have strong roots that never die.

You can't see them, but they are there. Unseen things are still there.
