Living without limitations


"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 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's 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 fear, our presence automatically liberates others. "

~ Marianne Williamson

As you've probably noticed, I'm not writing as much as I was in the beginning. I'm learning that sometimes it feels right to be the teacher, and other times, I need to be the student. On the mornings I wake up with nothing to say, instead of trying to force ideas, I'm sharing some of the teachings that have inspired me over the years. I hope they will inspire you too! Thank you for taking this blogging journey with me and being patient with all my trials and errs. You're the best!


...Oh yes I am wise
But it's wisdom born of pain
Yes, I've paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to, I can do anything
I am strong
I am invincible 
I am woman
