Lynn Harris. . . too many to name. ******************************************* 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 doesn't serve the world. There is 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 is 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 own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. ******************************************* For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life. ******************************************* Happiness is a journey, not a destination. So, work like you don't need money. Love like you've never been hurt and Dance like no one's watching.
HeroesMy heroes are my mom, Dot, who fought a fierce battle before she died of breast cancer, my Uncle Robert, and everyday people who make a difference in the lives of others without asking for anything in return. My heroes are people who understand the power that lies within themselves. A smile could just be a smile to you, but it could be everything to someone else.

About me:
Electa Rome Parks, one of the rising stars in contemporary fiction, is the author of the best-selling novels The Ties That Bind and Loose Ends, which were originally self-published through her own company, Novel Ideal Publishing and Editorial Services Company. After successfully self-publishing her debut novels, New American Library (NAL), a division of Penguin Group, bought the rights. Mrs. Parks signed a three-book deal with New American Library. Her first novel, The Ties that Bind, was re-released in October 2004, and Loose Ends was re-released in November 2004. Both books were immediately chosen as Black Expressions Book Club selections and embraced as Books of the Month by book clubs across the country. A third manuscript, Almost Doesn't Count, which was immediately chosen as the main selection for Black Expressions Book Club, was released in August 2005. Soon after, Electa signed her second book deal with Penguin Group/New American Library. Her latest projects are Ladies' Night Out (NAL, January 2007) and These Are My Confessions (HarperCollins,July 2007). Coming December 2009, DIARY OF A STALKER.

I hope everyone is beginning their week productively and in good spirits.
This past weekend I decided to completely challenge myself and anyone else who would like to accept.
I am going to attept to post 300 BLOGS IN 20 DAYS. I know it seems crazy but this is something that I need to do for myself. I want all of you to stop by http://trinalynnethewriter.blogspot.com and show love by supporting my efforts to achieve this goal.
 If you are a blogger, give your readers a real treat by accepting the challenge to do 300 BLOGS IN 20 DAYS. There is no prize for the challenge, but just a chance to push yourself to your full potential. Allow your creativity to explode with ideas.
I will number each blog within the 300 blog challenge to allow everyone to calculate the days that it takes once I begin. If anyone decides to take the challenge I ask that you number yours too.
Stayed Tuned This Week For The Date I Will Be Starting.
Until then,
TrinaLynne
