I experienced the joy of service to day, both giving and recieving. It feels really good. I am so happy that I have friends that trust me enough to ask for help and others that are so willing to help when I ask.
I also took the time to make cookies with my children today. It's not the smoothest operation, but it's so much fun to watch my 5 and 3 year olds as they measure, mix, and fight about who's turn is next, and then try to keep them out of the dough. And it's not to bad to have a few cookies around to eat, either:)
Good Times!
I just read this on a friends blog and thought it was so amazing that I wanted to share it. (Mostly with myself:)
Our Greatest Fear
Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate,but 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, handsome, talented, and fabulous? Actually, 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 shrinkingso that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God within us. It is not just in some; it is in everyone. And, as we let our own light shine, we consciously giveother people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others. -Marianne Williamson

What a cool quote! Thanks!
I love that quote. I've run across it several times lately. I remember a comment Sis. Susan W. Tanner made in a talk that reminds me of this too. I might have to look for it
