Fearless

"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." ~ Marianne Williamson

Recently I came to a fork in my road... follow a career or follow my dreams? It was really difficult to do, but I decided that in order to really enjoy my life I need to love what I do, and that required me to make some changes.

It's come to a point where I can no longer fear the unknown, fear reaching my dreams, or fear letting my light shine. So, I have decided that it is finally time to liberate from my fear and enroll back into college to get my degree in Graphic & Web Design. I will be attending Eagle Gate College at the end of the month :)

This blog will be my place to share what I'm learning, post pictures of my works of art, and vent my stress as I'm sure there will be challenges ahead... but hey, I've always liked a challenge!

  1. You've truly inspired me. A few days ago I started my own blog thinking about how you're making it through and learning new things. I'll be following you. :) So glad to have found you Kristen.
