“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.” #youareworthy #youareenough #youareimportant #youareloved #youarepowerful #youmatter
"Be the one who nurtures and builds. Be the one who has an understanding and forgiving heart. Be the one who looks for the best in people. Leave people better than you found them."
"Sometimes things just die, they do. We don’t want them to but they do. They die. And that doesn’t mean that they can’t come back to life but they’ve got to come back as something new, not as the same old dead thing. If you’re trying to renew, rebirth, and create a new normal in your life then you’ve gotta do some work. You’ve got to clarify what the problem is, take responsibility for your role in it, you’ve gotta ask for what you want, commit to a new behavior. And be willing to let the past go in order to have something new."
