Talking in Parenthesis

Ramblings and angst from a mostly stay at home mom

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 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 are 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 light shine, we give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. -Nelson Mandela

Should I Laugh or Cry

I was playing with Napster (the legal one) tonight with Franklin, my writer. I introduced him to some new artists. David Bowie, Elvis Costello and Weird Al. Not comment on my musical tastes. That is actually pretty tame. Anyways... after he listened to each of them and decided he liked them his one question was are they still alive? I feel old now...
