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.

Whine, Whine, Whine!

During football season, my dad and I help run chains on the sidelines of the highschool homegames. We have to stand on the visiting team's side. This Friday, we were playing some school from Spanish Fork, I think, and from the very beggining. the coaches whined whined and whined to the reffs. I don't know if the refs were doing a good job, because I don't understand about football, except that you are supposed to get the ball into the endzone. Ok, I understand a LITTLE more, but not much. Any way, the coaches didn't talk to the refs, but complained, whined, and moaned. And what is more, the first cussword that I heard that night came from the coaches. It was rediculous. They should be stopping it, not doing most of it. Ah well, you can't control people.
