A girl- what is she made of? A few silent tears for the boy friend she lost, an exuberant cheer and the splits for her very own home team, or that last minute artistic talent she picked upjust so she could make the construction crew.

But through all these extra-curricular activities she still finds a need for a few minutes of silence. She must get off the merry-go-round and take a look into the quiet life. Searching for happiness, whether in quiet things or action may find her on an endless-seeming trip, only to discover that the happiness she sought was circling all around her.
