I remember a cousin of mine who was 3 at the time was looking through my Diary/Journal. As someone of that age, the most important date is that of your birthday. But yet she always kept forgetting when it was. I showed her the date which also had a birthday cake I had drawn on their as well. She suddenly realized something. She asked me, "Was I born on the same day?" to which I replied "Yes". With much shock she said, " Oh my Gosh, I was born on my birthday."

Never thought of it that way

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's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are 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." - Marianne Williamson
