Out of the Shadows

I have spent the majority of my life in the shadows, not wanting to be seen.  Attention frightened me, made me feel like I was being judged by anyone who noticed me.

I have learned that I have powerful gifts and talents...we all do if we search for them.  Part of the journey that I am embarking on this summer is to discover all my gifts and talents in order to strengthen them.  I want to serve the world I live in, make it a better place for all.

I am gathering the things I need for my three months of solitude and reflection.  My mind is already in the mountains as I wrap-up the remainder of this school year.

I wish for all of you the opportunity to step out of the shadows and embrace the sunshine.  Flourish in the sun's warm glow and become your full self.

I am done staying in the shadows. I am standing in sunshine, in the light for all to see and hear.

Walk in Peace and Beauty
