To The People I Fell In Love With MAG
By MaiaKoryn GOLD
Playa Del Carmen, Other

There is no place that dominates me No conglomerate of proud, soggy mangrove; no luminary mine of glass cenote No facetious brickwork streets tread on by the sandals of tourist...

Invictus<br /> Out of the night that covers me, <br /> Black as the Pit from pole to pole, <br /> I thank whatever gods may be <br /> For my unconquerable soul. <br /> <br /> In the fell clutch of circumstance <br /> I have not winced nor cried aloud. <br /> Under the bludgeonings of chance <br /> My head is bloody, but unbowed. <br /> <br /> Beyond this place of wrath and tears <br /> Looms but the Horror of the shade, <br /> And yet the menace of the years <br /> Finds, and shall find, me unafraid. <br /> <br /> It matters not how strait the gate, <br /> How charged with punishments the scroll. <br /> I am the master of my fate: <br /> I am the captain of my soul.<br /> <br /> William Ernest Henley

&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.&quot;<br /> -Marianne Williamson-
