“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.”

Favorite Quote:
Love is passion, obsession, someone you can&rsquo;t live without. I say, fall head over heels. Find someone you can love like crazy and who will love you the same way back. How do you find him? Well, you forget your head, and you listen to your heart. And I&rsquo;m not hearing any heart. Cause the truth is, honey, there&rsquo;s no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love, well, you haven&rsquo;t lived a life at all. But you have to try, cause if you haven&rsquo;t tried, you haven&rsquo;t lived. <br /> William Parrish - Meet Joe Black.
