Fire is like hate, Burning bridges and spreading fear. Fire is like Cancer, Burning lives and memories. It is like passion, Flaring for love.

“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. You 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. It’s not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others”.

&quot;Deep down we all know our worth, we just need someone to truly love us first&quot;<br /> &quot;Now that I know what it means to be dead, I can start living again&quot;<br /> &quot;I am not afraid to keep on living I am not afraid to walk this world alone&quot;

&quot;I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they&#039;re right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe
