  She is my best friend.  She gave up believin'.  She started bleedin'. She tried covering and I said nothing, but she's still breathing. She's gone...

&ldquo;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&#039;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&#039;s not just in some of us; it&#039;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.&rdquo;

&ldquo;You know the power lines on the poles; well they go up and down every mile you drive down the road. What I say that symbolizes is that in life you will go through good and bad times so always stay true to yourself and never lose faith that God is helping you through life.&rdquo;<br /> -TexasRangersFan4Life<br /> Copyright: Wednesday, January 18, 2012
