“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.” Marianne Williamson

Clay's Park Resort was a very nice campground for our back to school kickoff with OHDELA (school). Wouldn't mind being there once a month to camp, especially if we could be there when they have their concerts going on like Alive and Blink Festival (both Christian music), they have a RocknRoll weekend along with all sorts of activities from what I gather.

John sunburned pretty bad and had a Taekwondo tournament Saturday, he did his form and sparred. Sparring hurt the sunburn, but the kick to the throat kinda helped the hurt factor along. Suprised him that is for sure, he did end up landing a kick to his opponent in the groin. So tit for tat as they say. Some pretty varied levels of competitors, from very new to done it forever. under 6 and over 65. Overall pretty cool to experience, and now the other two want to go for it also.

John sparring and his Instructor Ty is in the air.
