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.

Never Stop Exercising

I’ve never met anyone who said they regretted taking care of themselves. Exercise is worth every minute.

So What is Narcissism

It’s been 358 days since our government declared Covid-19 a national pandemic. Most of the world has been cooped up inside and ordered to self-isolate from others. This seems like a good time to define the term narcissism. I’ve heard the term “narcissist” many times in recent years. I don’t agree with the Websters definition stated simply as, “an exaggerated sense of self-importance.” That is more of an Ego. There is much more to narcissism.

PowerShell Introduction

I was working at a company where I was given the task of maintaining over 3000 computers. That’s when I discovered the beauty of Microsoft PowerShell. I was fortunate because the larger organization had already adopted PowerShell and started encouraging techs to use it. The biggest hurdle was the learning curve. I’ve always had a passion to learn programming, so I decided to dive right in and explore PowerShell’s features. I was gladly surprised how much Microsoft has done with the language. It’s really remarkable.

I find no cause more honorable than one which supports life.  I was 23 years old when my first daughter was born.  She was born with meconium aspiration– a life threatening condition. Thankfully, she fully recovered.
