Meant to Shine

“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's not just in some of us; it'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.”

Making the Switch

My dearest followers who I would ask kindly not to kill me for my extended absence,

So I am officially bored with the 30 Day Music Challenge. I am uninspired by the last few questions and have decided that I am not going to answer them. I'm sorry if you are terribly disappointed. [I think you can  handle it.] But because I was so successful at the 30 Day Music Challenge, I have decided to attempt the 30 Day Movie Challenge! I am fully aware of the silliness of that selection considering that my 30 Day Music Challenge started over a year ago and it was never completed. But I am not feeling imaginative enough to spark my own topic of conversation so I am relying on the creative juices of the Tumblr [my blog] and Facebook community to do it for me. 

If you haven't lost all faith in my blogging ability throughout the 30 Day Music Challenge, a) I appreciate it. b) follow my sarcastic rantings and self-righteous commentary for the next 30[ish] Movie Challenge posts, it should be an enlightening ride.

Here's to the lists of questions on Tumblr and Facebook that we all love to hate. Here's to answering every question, knowing full well that nobody will read them. And here's to giving second chances to bloggers who just can't seem to get into the habit of posting on a regular basis. [Hint, hint.]
