Maybe you're the mother who is hurting deep inside,
or the father who is struggling every day just to provide.
Maybe you're the little child from a broken home,
or sixteen or seventeen and feeling all alone.
Maybe you're the soldier who is clinging onto life
and praying to return to your children and your wife.
Maybe you're disabled and feel that no one cares,
and consumed by the torment of the whispers and the stares.
Maybe you're the bully that you know you shouldn't be,
who is waiting for a kind friend to come and set you free.
Maybe you're the parent who buried a child today
and afraid that your broken heart will never go away.
Maybe you're the person who believes you are too weak,
because your thoughts have overpowered the sweet spirit that you seek.
Just maybe you are greater than the life you have defined
and maybe your "true worth" is in your heart, not in your mind.
Your destiny is before you, there are no reasons to regress,
for the life that is worth living is the one that you possess.

"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 to be brilliant, gorgeous, talent, 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."
