I often find myself always thinking about how one day things will change and that my life will have a purpose and that I will be happy but I haven't made any necessary changes into making this happen. I don't want to live my life depressed all the time and it kills me to think that this could be my life, nothing but sadness and depression with little glimpses of hope that sneak out of the shadows of my sadness for a few moments and then as if it can tell that I am not deserving or strong enough it quickly goes away.

I have an exciting trip coming up that I would like to be more excited about and I really don't want to take my sadness, anxiety, self pity, and emotionally damaging rumerations with me.I decided to take a small step to find and post quotes that mean are inspirational. Today I will start by posting the following quote by Marianne Williamson: 

"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's 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're liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
