Favorite Quote:
"Why do people say the sky is the limit when theres foot prints on the moon" “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.”


“This is Earth”
This is Earth
This is You
This is Me
This is Us
Together we form one.

The Earth seems to give infinite trust
And make no mistake
We all give and take
But the time has come to start to care
And to do our share.

Isn’t this worth
To save what gives birth
To all kinds of life
If we all give a little sacrifice
We can be part of the cure
The cure to help this nurturing mother
The mother that tends to us all
Each and everyday.





-Juan Casanova
