All Used Up....

I worry.  I worry that I'm not doing enough.  I worry that I'm doing too much.  I worry that I'm doing the wrong things or even the right things at the wrong time.  And I worry that I'm wasting good things.

I don't want to waste anything.  Time, talent, love........    

There is a great quote from a little girls that reads:  

"When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left and could say, 'I used everything you gave me.'"  -  Erma Bombeck

Now that says it all.


I want to be known as a person who is gentle and kind.


I want to be brave enough to give everything I am.


I don't ever want my kids to wonder how I feel about them.
"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."  -  Marianne Williamson

Let's not waste anything....and let's not be afraid!
