Favorite Quote:
“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, 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 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 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.”


Im too young for all of this,
living in a world caught up in a sinful bliss.
What happened and when will it stop?
It's time God took over, no need for the cops.

Mouths dirtier then the dirt of our making,
all about us, the truth we have forsaken
Open your eyes and see that what you have really doesn't matter,
when our time is all up, there will be no pockets to make fatter.

I couldn't be God and not flip out,
for His beautiful creations no not what life is truly about.
We fight and consume ourselves with senseless things,
not realizing that He is our everything!

Soon enough it will all come to an end,
no more wars, money, or texts to send
Learn it now before its too late.
Don't want to meet God without forgiveness of your mistakes.

He IS coming, just to let you know,
hurry now get His word, there's still time to grow.
Open your heart and let Him in,
with Him I promise you will win!

My own spiritual journey inspired me to write this. I hope this piece encourages people to take a look, not at only themselves, but also at the world around them, and realize that it's time to turn to a higher power, and that higher power is God!
