"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.”


If I were to fly
Would you
Cry
If so why?

If I were to fly,
How long would you say
Good Bye

If I were to fly
What would you think of?
If you looked to the sky

If I were to fall
Who would you call?

But If I were to sink
What would you think?

What would you do?
As soon as you knew

Would your feelings change?
Whether I flew, fell, or sank?

I would not know what you would feel
I could not imagine how you would deal

I wouldn’t know,
What would be in store?
All I know for sure,
Is I would fly over all who I adore
