Edit: sisterly. Thats the word I was looking for. She gives me big sister vibes.

Quoting Bahaollah certainly did not help. I am old, waiting for the reaper to strike. You too are not young. Why envy now. Let us be satisfied by what we have. Don't we have enough?
Worship the Hindu Goddess of Satisfaction, Santoshi Mata. That may help you.
You can choose the fair one or the dark one, the choice is yours. They are the same.

She is fascinating! If I am understanding right, her popularity came from a movie?

When @Quintessence consults with trees, Quintessence gets to the root of their problems.

On a non-punny note, I love Quintessence's profile banner. I was wondering whether the three-leaf symbol has a special meaning?

Yes, it does - it's an oak-and-acorn version of the Awen symbol used by some modern Druid groups.

When I was first studying Druidry in a more formal capacity, I didn't get this symbol. As I've gone through the grades, now I'm finding it has layers and layers of meaning in it. In one layer of meaning, the three dots (acorns) represent the stations of the sun and the emergent rays (leaves) how the seasons flow into our lives. In another layer of meaning, the three dots are the three drops from Cerridwen's cauldron which bestow rays of knowledge/inspiration/awen/enlightenment.
