life is a journey

Focus on the journey, not the destination. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it.
Greg Anderson

Intelligent or not?

The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.
Albert Einstein 

Powerful words. Coming from someone so intelligent, it makes me feel better about myself because I am always trying to solve problems creatively.  

Our deepest fear...

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'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 is not just in some of us; 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 own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
