Sometimes, Melissa runs her legs. Sometimes, she runs her mouth.

Quote of the day

“Our worst 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 doesn’t serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God within us. It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone, and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people premission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

Nelson Mandela

    I love that quote! He’s an incredible speaker, and his words are so beautiful. I have a few books on my “to read” book list, and several of them are by or about him. I must move those up higher in the queue.
