The Post Before The First.

This could be known as philosophy..shh, don't tell!
Here is a quote I found very helpful!

" 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
Frightens Us. 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 En lighting
About Shrinking So That Others Won't
Feel Insecure Around You. We Were
Born To Manifest The Glory Of GOD
Within Us. It's 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." ~Nelson Mandela

1 Timothy 4:12 ”Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.”

Did you read that article? It's good, but I didn't write it.... I just thought of it when I read your post! :)

I didn't care for the quote, but when I saw it was by Nelson Mandela, I suddenly cared more about what was being said. If the quote is a long one, as this one is, I recommend telling us who the author of the quote is before pasting the text, that way we will listen more carefully to what is said if we believe in the author. Thanks for sharing!
