Turn your Face to the Sun

Turn your Face to the Sun

Whakapono Tui

Turn your face to the sun and the shadows fall behind you. 

~ Hurihia tō aroaro ki te rā tukuna tō atarangi kia taka ki muri i a koe

Whakapono means faith the quiet trust that things will work out. Tui lift their faces to the sun, joyful, confident, untroubled by what lies behind them. The truth of this whakatauki is that when you choose to face forward, worries, doubts, the hard things we carry, those things fall behind you - Not gone, but no longer leading the way.

For anyone facing something hard, beginning something new, or someone you want to remind that better things are ahead - this print is for them.
