By WindRunner GOLD
Troy, Michigan

Freedom to Joy, to Joy to Freedom, to peace to love, from love to peace, the circle rotated endlessly. Then, we messed up.

For those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will fly on wings like eagles, they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

&quot;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, &#039;Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented?&#039; 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 others won&#039;t feel insecure around you. We were all meant to shine as children do. We were all born to make manifest the glory of God that&#039;s 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.&quot;<br /> -Nelson Mandela
