Portland, OR

He's from the area. But he said he was born in Missouri. He once said I wouldn't have met you if I didn't move here. Keep praying Doki, in time....

I saw how beautiful it is in the movie we watched at school, "Extraordinary Measures". But my problem is that I have never set foot in the US so I cannot totally relate....

Portland Rose Hospital etc. Maybe OR is the Rose State?

Fresh Pick

A Return to Love, by Marianne Williamson
(as quoted by Nelson Mandela in his inaugural speech, 1994)

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.

We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?

Actually, who are we not to be?

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 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 fears, our presence automatically liberates others.
