This proverb teaches us some of the secrets of enjoying a full life.
    - Keep young or at least active.
    - Never lose hope
    - Experience the pursuit of  joy and beauty.
    - Strive to grow or become something greater than what you are today.
    - Hold only those things in your heart that are fresh, new or encouraging.
 
Remember, a green bough is hard to break and may eventually produce a delicious red apple.

This melodious song from Christine McVie, called Songbird, her poetic symbol of love,  describes the story of a songbird that has come to her. Love, when it brings beauty and joy into your life, is unlike anything that has ever come before.
