View this post on Instagram

It rises everyday, it shines and burns even when there are some obstacles in between, it tries to give us warm, light and give us the chance to live every single day! It gives the best to everyone without exception regardless of what side of the world, skin color, social status, gender or sexual orientation. Be so persistent and respectful like it and the World will be a better place! I love IT, I love the SUN ☀️□ Written by: Professor Apolónia □ #philosophicalmoment #sunlover #inspiration
