Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass. It’s about learning to dance in the rain. Whilst all animals run helter scatter in a storm, the peacock displays its brilliant plumage and dance for everyone to see. When a storm brew, do you dance or do you run away? If the latter – what from? where to? why?
