Been busy with prep-classes these past couple of weeks, so I haven't had a whole lot of free time to goof off online much. Speaking of which, I'm stoked that I quit smoking nearly 3 weeks ago. Go me!!

Anyhoo, I was doing my usual web surfing (related mostly for school) and stumbled upon this... Naturally I thought about all of us making our own journey through this thing called 'recovery', together.

Hope ya like it as much as I!



Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate,
but that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant,
gorgeous, handsome, talented and 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't feel insecure around you.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God within us.
It is not just in some; it is 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 fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.

- Marianne Williamson, "Return to Love"

First time I've seen this! Great stuff and I will use. How did you download the picture?

Funny, from experience, never get so caught up in life that you forget what allows you life. In looking at your profile, your unique blogs were not a trivial thing; I'm sure they helped you, and from the comments posted, helped others! Helping even 1 is important!

luv

DG -
A powerful statement.
     How many times have I asked myself. Why me? Why did I get this gift, that situation thrust in my path or that question? All that led me to be being something more than I was before. Some were painful, others not so.
     I have learned it is  a good thing to take these frozen moments in time given to me and use them for His Will - where and who ever they may lead me to.
Your surfing ended up on a beautiful wave...
Thanx,
Dennis

Beautiful. YES, we are children of God and we are expected to the live on this earth with the Blessings God has intended for us. We are human and it may take some time, but we can live a life full of His Blessings.
