“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

I was linked here from Fenris' blog. I enjoyed reading your posts and hope to see more. I know how difficult it is to think of things to write and to be able to word things how I mean them, and even when I do, half the time I don't feel it's good enough to share. You'll find my blog centers around family activities or "major" events in which a stay at home mother doesn't have many of. Keep writing though, and I'll keep reading. =)
