My favorite quote (or reminder as I like to think of them)...

“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.” (Marianne Williamson - A Return to Love)

Time to Shine

"A day without sunshine is like, you know, night." ~ Steve Martin

Two things to "report" about today. First is to acknowledge that this is my least favorite day of the year. Do you really still ask why? It is the shortest "day" of the year today, Dec. 21st -- a day with the least amount of (wait for it....) SUNSHINE! Yuck. Who needs that? The good news is that from tomorrow on, the days get longer and that means more sunshine each day coming out to shine! I do love to shine you know?!

Second...As I mentioned a while back, CityGal Magazine asked me to be a contributing writer for their on-line magazine and I asked my daughters to do it with me and everyone agreed! Well, it is official that we (Annie, Caroline and I) have had our first article published this month! The Perspective Gals are in the house! Our first topic was on "fashion" and our goal was to pick a simple topic, say nothing to each other while we write, and each write about that topic in our totally and completely own perspective. I loved how it turned out and invite you to join the fun! Here are the links if you are interested!
