"I wonder if we might pledge ourselves to remember what life is really all about--not to be afraid that we're less flashy than the next, not to worry that our influence is not that of a tornado, but rather that of a grain of sand in an oyster! Do we have that kind of patience?" (FR)

Probably not!! I'm finding it difficult to be unafraid...I don't even know where to begin....so I just keep borrowing lines, as if this will give me incentive to open up and bare my own soul....I just want to put something on the page...'break the ice' if you will...it's not working very well!!
