Happy Year of the Rabbit!

Rabbits are earnest in everything that they do; they just ask that others treat them the same way.

Zodiac Rabbits' Personality: Quiet, Elegant...

"According to Chinese astrology, Rabbits are predicted to be gentle, quiet, elegant, and alert as well as quick, skillful, kind, patient, and very responsible, sometimes reluctant to reveal their minds to others and having a tendency to escape reality, but always faithful to those around them." - chinahighlights.com
