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 frightens us. You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world.

There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you.

We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us, it is in everyone.

As we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.

As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others. – Marianne Williamson

Another month, another opportunity to grow in ways that I never could’ve imagined at this time last year. Can you believe it’s almost May? Can you believe Infinity War is out today?! I certainly can. Pop over here to peep my most recent piece for The Mission, “20 Storytelling Lessons We Can Learn from Marvel”.

As far as editing goes, it’s full steam ahead on The Book! I’ve reached edit 20/26, one of two bigger projects that came up in my last draft. I just met three new characters, and they’ve got me freaking excited to keep moving forward. Their aesthetics are available to view here.

Lastly, I found that awesome quote by Marianne Williamson in Nonviolent Communication, which I finished this morning. You can read my full recommendation here. In addition to my reading, I’ve uploaded two vlogs this month. Today’s video is about one of my favorite fictional characters of all time: the lovely Anne Shirley. I hope you enjoy the quotes (and my slightly extra favorite headband)!

Do you have topic suggestions for future vlogs? BLESS YOU. Hit me up in the comment section below or on Twitter @AquinnahBree. Your thoughts are much appreciated!
