The world is a looking glass and gives back to every man the reflection of his/her own face.-William M. Thackeray
“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.â€
-Nelson M./Marianne W.
Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clean. It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we've learned something from yesterday.-John Wayne

My heroes...
.My parents. My friends who I have inherited as a part of my inner circle..they make me sane, destroy my liver, hold my hair back, got my back like a bra strap, and are my voice of reason. They are the "reinforcements" in my life, and are all warriors in this journey! And God,
who has grounded me when the road became a bit shaky, tested my faith when times took a turn for the worse, and constantly gives me more than I ever expect.
