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 were born to make manifest the glory of God that is 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 permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

Things to think about

1. Studying Don Q in Humanities brings up strange emotions inside of me. Super emotional emotions... right.

2. I get upset when people take more than their half of the lane. I'm like, "Seriously! Here I am, practically swimming under the lane lines while you're jaunting down the center! Do you even know what sharing is?"

3. Swimming makes me verrrrry tired. I'm in bed between 9:30 and 10 every night.

4. I am currently obsessed with chips. Sun chips mostly.

5. While driving one of the service vehicles on campus, I feel superior to most human beings... and then it stops.

6. Wheat Thins have become my way to survive my classes.

7. Painting little white strips across the top of my nail makes my nails curiously beautiful and I find that I like to admire them during class while teachers are lecturing. Oops.

8. Secondly. I still don't like nail polish.

9. Without fail, ABC's Castle always makes me smile.


10. I miss my friends. 

11. I really love my sisters. 

12. Chocolate is a gift from Heaven (but I already knew that, like, 100 times over)

13. Who names their company "Cackle Fresh Egg Farms"?

14. Kindle Fire? Awesome.


15. Toasted tuna for lunch on Sundays (excepting Fast Sunday, of course) is a tradition that I miss. :(

16. Lark Rise to Candleford is HILARIOUS! It doesn't matter who you are or what genre you prefer, it will make you laugh. 


17. Geography is one of the greatest things to study! If you haven't taken a class, you should!

18. I never play Words With Friends with friends. Only with my family. Odd.

19. If my father weren't LDS, he would probably be a preacher. 

20. That's enough.

21. One more... Books. Can't get enough of books.

Now I'm done.

  1. So...did I ever tell you I'm teaching geography for student teaching?
