february 17, 2011 // our deepest fear
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear in 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 enlightening about shrinking
so that other people won’t feel unsure around you.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone.
As we let our own light shine,
we consciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.
--Marianne Williamson

january 5, 2011 // neckache of the month
It's January. It's the start of a new year.. so I'm starting something new. Each month I'll be highlighting a "Neckache of the Month". I know that sounds bad, but it's actually a really good thing! The neckache I'm talking about is the kind you'd get from looking up to someone! These are people that I admire, look up to and who inspire me creatively.
My "Neck Ache of the Month" for January is Jim Henson.
Jim Henson is awesome for so many reasons. I mean, who would have ever thought that a man and his puppets could influence as many people as Jim Henson has? Seriously, though.. think of a world without Muppets for a minute. Ah! Okay, stop! It's too sad!
What an imagination that man had. He made it okay for adults to enjoy a medium for children - puppets. Genius! Jim Henson, thank you for all that you contributed to this world. Your legacy lives on!
I love this song and it's even better with Muppets.
Muppet babies.. you are adorable.. especially you Rowlf!
Next week, I'll be driving up to Montana to write and illustrate a children's book. I'm giving myself a 30-day deadline. It's something that I've wanted to do since middle school and I have a goal to publish the book by the age of 25. Well, here I am.. two days into my 25th year.. which means it must be time to get this ball rolling! I'll be sure to watch some episodes of The Muppet Show while I'm in Montana to get my creative juices flowing!

december 30, 2010 // my first crush
I love this video. The animation is adorable and and the dialogue is taken from interviews with people about their first crush. My first crush was on a handsome fellow-peschooler named Michael. Man, did he have it all and more. Julia Pott - You are one talented lady!
