Forget Me Not

I love this talk. After I heard it, I wanted to send a bouquet of "Forget Me Not" flowers to every woman who has touched my life (you know who you are).

I also love this quote from Marianne Williamson

"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's 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're liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

I loved Pres. Uchtdorf's talk too, and I LOVE your quote! I should print that one out to keep on my fridge. Thanks for sharing.
