"A bad attitude is like a flat tire... if you don't change it, you won't get anywhere." I'm planning to somehow tie it in with my trades for SRD, since the whole flat tire thing kinda fits in with the Nascar theme. My family can quote it from memory since they have to look at it if they're at the computer. LOL. hugs, Janet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 I thought you all might like this.. "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate but 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? But 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 others around you won't feel insecure. You were born to make manifest the Glory of God that is within you. As we all let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we become liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." excerpt from Mandela's Inaugural Speech Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great of you post this, many thanks. Sue I thought you all might like this.. " Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate but that we are powerful beyond measure.
