"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.  Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.  What does it mean?  That I am not suppose to be afraid.  Afraid of what?  Afraid of me.  Interesting way to think of things.

Ok So I am a big time fan of Oprah.  She just rocks for one but she is truly connected with her viewers and well most americans for that matter.  She is so powerfull and has such a big impact on the world.  But she seems to allways stay true to herself and not let her ego get to big.  If you are really llistening she is often saying things or little message that can be related to your life in some way shape or form.  Ok so now that i confess my admiration for Oprah LOL.  I just had to posted a phrase orquote that i heard her say and its so true. 

"Your crown in life has been bought and paid for, now all you have to do is have the courage and the confidence to put it on and wear it."  So in other wards you have been given a life for the soul purpose of living it to the fullest extent.  Its yours and you deserve it dont be afraid to give it your all.

A Brick or a whisper?

A young and successful executive was travelling
down a neighbourhood street, going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar.
He was watching for kids darting out from
between parked cars. As his car passed, no children appeared.
Instead, a brick smashed into the Jaguar's side door! He slammed on the brakes, jumped out of the car, grabbed the kid who
was standing there and pushed him against a parked car shouting,
"What do you think you are doing, boy?"
Building up a head of steam he went on, "That's a new car and that brick you threw is going to cost a lot of money. Why did you do it?"
"Please sir, please. I'm sorry, I didn't know
what else to do," pleaded the youngster. "I threw the brick because no one else would
stop..." Tears were dripping down the boy's chin as he pointed around the parked car.
"It's my brother, sir," he said. "He rolled off the curb and fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him
up."
Sobbing, the boy asked the executive, "Would
you please help me get him back into his wheelchair, sir? He's
hurt and he's too heavy for me."
Moved beyond words, the driver tried to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in his throat .He lifted the young man back into the wheelchair and took out his handkerchief and wiped the scrapes and cuts, checking to see that
everything was going to be okay."Thank you and may God bless you, sir," the
grateful child said to him. The man then watched the little boy pushed his brother towards their home.It was a long walk back to his Jaguar...a long slow walk.He never did repair the side door.
He kept the dent to remind him not to go
through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get
your attention.
Sometimes when you don't have time to listen, God has to throw a brick at you.
It's your choice:Listen to the whisper... or wait for the brick.

I cant say i have ever really thought of carrying for anyone to be a bad thing.  I think for the most part I am a very carrying person.  Who knows maybe I was taught  this or maybe i was born into the world this way.  I know that carrying for someone isnt always easy.  Especially if the person doesnt really care for themselves.  I know that at times i have thought it would be so much easier in life if I didnt care so much about others.  But I dont really feel that way I think it just sounds good to say or think as a solution to avoid being hurt by caring for someone else.  If i dont care about anybody they cant hurt me right??  I think we all know that the world doesnt work like that.  So all in all i think to be a carrying person in the world is not all that bad.  But a friend brought up a very interesting point of view.   Caring for someone is a good thing as long as you are carrying with your heart and for all the right reason.  There in lies the tricky part what or who determines what are the right reason.  Well I dont have the answer for that i guess we all have to try to figure them out on our own.  But i think if you pause for a moment and really think about these things you might be more likely to make the right choices about how and who you choose to care for.  "If you find it in your heart to care for somebody else, you will have succeeded."

I dont think i could put into words any better than this song does about where i am in my life right now!!!  Its about coming to terms with myself, accepting myself, loving myself, and realizing I'm alright..

My heart's jumpin'
God, I'm feelin' open
Spent a long time mopin'
Get a load of me, feelin' free
No pain no more
No blockin' up my own door
All anger out my back door
God, it's good to see

Life got

Got Kinda  hard, I faced it
Fought and cried and almost gave in
All negative forces faded
Love of me just walked right in

I'm just me, I'm enough
With myself I'm in love
I've been weak, I've been low
Made me strong, now I know
I'm just me, I'm enough
Nothin' less, nothing more
I wish everybody could just feel this kind of love

Feels good, feels fine, feels good, yeah
My mind's older
Chip's fallen off my shoulder
All need to prove is over
Good enough for me
Found willingness
Found will to be courageous
No need to feel defenseless, Peace

I'm just me, I'm in love
With myself I'm in love
I've been weak, I've been low
Made me strong, now I know
I'm just me, I'm enough
Nothin' less, nothing more
I wish everybody could just feel this kind of love

Where is all the depth in the world.

Here I am so many thoughts I just dont know were to go to get a piece of silence.  Voices, Speaking, Claws scratching, Its like people scratching at the walls to get out.  So much depth living in a world of shallowness.   This world doesnt seem deep enough to accomidate the depths I am willing, eager and capable of reaching.  Why do I feel so alone.  I dont realy believe that the world is as it seems from my point of view.  I just dont feel like I have figured out the combination or secret to success when it comes to obtaining the world I so desire to live in.

Quote to someone who has recently lost a loved one!!!

"You know, after my brother died, everybody told me that I was gonna be ok. That, it would take a little time, but I would heal. Well, that didn't ever happen; not really anyway. . . What you're feeling right now , it doesn't ever really go away -- not completely. It's not like, ya know, you're gonna go back to being the person you were before they died -- the person's gone. It's more like something inside of you breaks and your body finds a way to compensate for it. Like if you busted your right hand, you figure out how to use the left one. And sure, you might resist for awhile because you're pissed off that you have to learn all this stuff again that nobody else does. Eventually your body takes over and figures it out for you. And your glad. because if it was up to you. . . you'd look at your broken hand forever and try to figure out what it was like before."

Follow your heart wherever it takes you and be happy. Life is brief and very fragile and only loaned to us for a while. Wake up every morning with the thought that something wonderful is about to happen. If your not happy maybe your not following your heart!

My Fatal Flaw,

The more things change, the more they stay the same. I'm not sure who the first person was who said that. Probably Shakespeare. Or maybe Sting. But at the moment, it's the sentence that best explains my tragic flaw: my inability to change.
 
I don't think I'm alone in this. The more I get to know other people, the more I realize it's kind of everyone's flaw. Staying exactly the same for as long as possible, standing perfectly still... It feels safer somehow. And if you are suffering, at least the pain is familiar. Because if you took that leap of faith, went outside the box, did something unexpected... Who knows what other pain might be out there, waiting for you. Chances are it could be even worse.
 
So you maintain the status quo. Choose the road already traveled and it doesn't seem that bad. Not as far as flaws go. You're not a drug addict. You're not killing anyone... Except maybe yourself a little.
When we finally do change, I don't think it happens like an earthquake or an explosion, where all of a sudden we're like this different person. I think it's smaller than that. The kind of thing most people wouldn't even notice unless they looked at us really close. Which, thank God, they never do.
 
But you notice it. Inside you that change feels like a world of difference. And you hope this is it. This is the person you get to be forever... that you'll never have to change again.
