On being free and realizing your potential . . .

We may have bad weather in Ireland, but the sun shines in the hearts of the people and that keeps us all warm. If you give your life as a wholehearted response to love, then love will wholeheartedly respond to you. 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 most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that 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 all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
-Marianne Williamson

Staple Minefield

Getting all those up will be funnnnnnnnnnnn. Sike. Anyway the floors/joints/walls will be sealed, the baseboards possibly replaced and painted over, and then the floor will be finished. The room will be painted. The panels will be made and hung. Blah blah blah. Etc etc etc. More to come.








Side note: tearing up stuff is fun. And that wallpaper will probably be lots of fun getting off. Ciao.
