Favorite Quote:
“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.”


Your face says it all,
beauty is what you are not what you should be called.
You redefine what we all know such to be
you give life to even the dullest of realities.
Never let anyone make you feel inferior
for you are beautiful beyond the exterior.
The smile you smile and the talk you talk
suggests God's idea of the life we should walk.
A spirit so sweet and pure
nothing about your love seems obscure.
Weaknesses and imperfections you do not lack
but nevertheless your disposition it does not impact.
For you understand the things that matter most
remaining humble and remembering not to boast.
Truly an inspiration
obtaining qualities to restore a nation.
Look to the the person on your left and right
for each is a beauty with qualities turning darkness to light.
