So...

Thus begins my career as a blogger.

Why?

Why not?

And!

Because it's on the "internets" It's all true. Every.thing.I.say.

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 and fabulous?
Actually who are we not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't 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 when 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.

100 Days


100 days of just memories. 100 days of missing good morning kisses. 100 days of missing bedtime snuggles. 100 days of nothing but pictures and memories and tears.

Talking to Jenny tonight, going through pictures, remembering funny chats and laughing, only to be brought back to tears again, and again. Megan, you were a light in my life, half a country away.

I miss your smile, your little fuzzy head, your big as the entire world smiles, and your hippo teeth. I miss exchanging stories with your mama about the things you and Declan did that were so similar and some so very different. I watch Declan now and think about how I could be getting a picture sent to me of you doing the exact same thing, and then I realize that I won't get any more of your pictures.

Since Megan died, I have noticed a huge change in you. You wear your heart on your sleeve and your emotions are never far away. It is such a blessing to know you and I treasure our friendship. :-)
