My mom for oh so many reasons! She's too much fun and always knows what to say to make my day a little brighter. She has also taught me how to be a strong and resilient woman like herself. She's my best friend, and she's the one person I can count on to tell it like it is.

“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 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'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 fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” ~A Return To Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles by Marianne Williamson

"While we look to the dramatist to give romance to realism, we ask of the actor to give realism to romance." ~Oscar Wilde
"It's funny how the Earth never opens up and swallows you when you want it to." ~Xander from Buffy the Vampire Slayer;Teacher's Pet
"There are very few human beings who receive the truth, complete and staggering, by instant illumination. Most of them acquire it fragment by fragment, on a small scale, by successive developments, cellularly, like a laborious mosaic." ~Anais Nin
"To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance." ~Oscar Wilde
"Yesterday is but today's memory, and tomorrow is today's dream." ~Khalil Gibran

You are right, it has been ages since we last spoke. I returned to the Jacksonville area shortly after graduating from the University of Miami in 2001, then I moved back to Miami in 2003 and returned, yet again, to the Jacksonville area toward the end of the year 2005. It is great that we have reconnected. We should get together sometime soon. What have you been up to these days?
