Early-morning finger exercise...

     So I found a lengthy quote in my Newsfeed a few minutes ago, and since every attempt at typing on either of the two works I have in progress has proved fruitless once again today, I figured I'd pontificate on someone elses shit for a few minutes... I figure it's the Universe at work, because the quote was a scan of a piece of paper with the words typed on it, and several people were tagged in the picture... So some surfer I met in a bar in Costa Rica was tagged in this picture, and the only reason I clicked on it was because it was clearly just itty-bitty lines of text and I wanted to see what they said... I read it, and it struck a powerful chord, because it has to do a lot with how I've been been feeling lately... I feel empowered, and there are many kinks to be worked out, but my fingers moving on these keys with some sort of regularity is the beginning of my letting my own light fully shine... I know it just as sure as I know that when I looked at the name of the person who tagged my once-met-Costa-Rican-surfer-friend, his name was Kelvin, which is also the name of my favorite attorney-wingman-co-pilot, and not a common name at that... Small things, but the Universe at work, regardless... It's all around when you start to see it, and we must sometimes take unconventional routes or blather on mumbo-jumbo-style to keep it all moving along... So here comes my little inspiration for the day...

Know your self... Be your self...

Happy Snow Day, people...

     " 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..." *

*Quote attributed to Nelson Mandela, but according to several websites, falsely so. So he either wrote it, or this health-and-wellness/spirituality writer Marianne Williamson did... Kinda like that music video from the 90s commonly mis-attributed to Kurt Vonnegut, but actually wirtten by some chick from Philly, or something... Doesn't matter, the words is the words, and they's good words...
