Do you know the words to the song, De Colores? I know that “De Colores” has come to be sort of a latin american anthem, but I actually LEARNED the lyrics about 20 years ago. It goes something like
De colores
De colore con el pillo pillo pillo.
De colores,
De colores el cara cara cara.
De colores con el arco iris que vemos lucir.
(or something like that….. it was after all 20 years ago)
Meaning, basically….. The chicken is colorful, the noise he makes is colorful, rainbows are colorful.
My rendition isn’t perfect and perhaps not accurate, but the gist is that life is rich.

Sing the wrath, O Muse!
Or, remembering AIA, Roy lamets that “Life is pain” and Belize responds, “sing it baby.”
