A little girl in a little red wagon...

A fireman working on the engine outside the station notices a little girl in a little red wagon with little ladders hung off the side and a garden hose tightly coiled in the middle.

The girl is wearing a fireman's helmet and has the wagon tied to a dog and a cat

The fireman walks over to take a closer look. "That sure is a nice fire truck," the fireman says with admiration.

"Thanks," the girl replies.

The fireman looks a little closer and notices the girl has tied the wagon to the dog's collar and to the cat's testicles.

"Little partner," The fireman says: "I don't want to tell you how to run your fire truck, but if you were to tie that rope around the cat's collar, I think he could pull more."

The little girl replied: "You're probably right, sir, but then I wouldn't have a siren."

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.
