In the dark it's like a black and white TV There's no difference between truth and honesty Colors are undiscernable, tones are similiar So don't raise your voice...

"Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind."

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.<br /> Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.<br /> <br /> It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us.<br /> <br /> We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous,<br /> talented and fabulous?<br /> <br /> Actually, who are you not to be?<br /> <br /> You are a child of God.<br /> <br /> Your playing small does not serve the world.<br /> <br /> There&#039;s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other<br /> <br /> people won&#039;t feel insecure around you.<br /> <br /> We were born to make manifest the glory of<br /> God that is within us.<br /> <br /> It&#039;s not just in some of us; it&#039;s in everyone.<br /> <br /> And as we let our own light shine,<br /> we unconsciously give other people<br /> permission to do the same.<br /> <br /> As we are liberated from our own fear,<br /> Our presence automatically liberates others.<br /> <br /> &mdash;Marianne Williamson
