hands up, they're playing my song

I haven't been on this in a while.

Observations: I can kind of see the future. I'm the goddess of backup plans. I'm not being very nice to men lately.

What makes us acclimate to losing? I could quote that Marianna Williamson speech, but do I really need to?
Well, okay.

"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?…Your playing small does not serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do…It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates other."

There you go.

I have things to do.
Obviously, because why else would I be up at 1:30am? I'm only getting up in five hours anyway.
