Quote and scripture for the day
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, and fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a Child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking
So that other people won't feel insecure around you.
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 fears,
Our presence automatically liberates others.
Proverbs 21:19
It is better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry women.
*Incedently Steve just went camping, hmmmmmmm.
I finally put a lot of post up below, enjoy.

Awesome quote. Thanks.
And the scripture is nice too. :-)
i have always loved that speech.
as far as the scripture about the wilderness... no wonder aaron used to go to the mountains after we argued at the beginning of our marriage. :) i hated that. i was always so lonely. anyhow... i am a downer. sorry. don't worry, he stopped doing that because he knew i was always so sad when he left.
i love and miss him.
Oh, fond memories of girls camp and all things 'young womens.' But that's one thing I miss about young womens; the feeling that everyone has such amazing potential and power.
Thanks Liz for the reminder!
