"Once we believe in ourselves, we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight or any experience that reveals the human spirit."          ~ e.e. cummings

We can risk being vulnerable too. And honest. And real. We can be our wondrous, one-of-a-kind-in-all-eternity amazing selves, comfortably. 

But could this be a chicken and egg situation?

Because it seems to me that when we tap into the true depths of the human spirit and access the love, the hope, the joy, the courage - all the qualities present there - we end up enriched, empowered, and believing in ourselves.

Whether we start with the chicken or the egg today, may we love being ourselves, today and every day.

Truly,
