It's limited only by how we limit it! Yes, think it first, and then it can be so... Thanks for stopping by, Patrick! @Snigdha - Wonderfully said! I love the idea of "deep within" being God's gift to us, and what "we become" is our gift to God. Looking at it this way, don't we really want to get in touch with the "deep within" in us, and then become what we can for the glory of God! Definitely not as easy as it sounds. And yet, it is so worth striving for! And, thank you in regards to the interview with Daphne - she really radiates joy! @Very Evolved — Our brain is so powerful, isn’t it.

As some wise soul said... what we are deep within is God's gift to us; what we become is our gift to God !! Let us grab each opportunity to be all that we can be! Not as easy as it sounds, though - but it's worthwhile to work upon it continuosly ! Yeah, loved your interview with Daphne - very insightful. All the best. <abbr><em>snigdha´s last blog post..<a href="http://snigdhasbouquet.blogspot.com/2009/01/of-bumble-bees-and-elephants.html" rel="nofollow">OF BUMBLE BEES AND ELEPHANTS</a></em></abbr> Hi, Lance, that’s a powerful thought — which we forget too often .…a reminder that needs further reminders, off and on, to be reminded about the fact that, at the end, it is all about your own self — how you have measured up to your own self… how consciously and courageously you have been tapping what lies inside you.

The brain is such an amazing organ, with the ability to synthesize a complete world within the confines of your skull. If you want to archive something in life and you can't make it happen in your own grey matter landscape first, then it won't happen in the outside world.

I think what "golden opportunity" means to me is that we have within us, really within, the ability to accomplish whatever we desire. And that thought is golden, indeed! @Jamie|Wired Parent Pad - So well said, Jamie! What we "really" desire does come from within, and we have to look for it - it's not always going to just jump out and stare us in the face until we act... @Jenny — You’re right, the help of others is definitely not bad.

It's something that I've certainly struggled with, and something that a lot of people struggle with. I also think it's something that comes with age. As I've gotten older and gained more of life's experiences, this has kind of slapped me up side the head. I'm not going to wake up some day and have all of my dreams true and hardships taken care of - it all comes from within. <abbr><em>Jamie | WiredParentPad´s last blog post..<a href="http://wiredparentpad.com/8-essential-text-shortcut-websites-for-parents/" rel="nofollow">8 Essential Text Shortcut Websites for Parents</a></em></abbr> I love this quote and the concept.

Sometimes people can give you the kick in the pants you need, I've had it happen. I can say I can back up your quote though, although it may not be a golden opportunity, it is still an opportunity that I came to understand this weekend was in my control. Hopefully it goes well and things start looking up, I'm in dire need of it! <abbr><em>Jenny´s last blog post..<a href="http://jennytomlin.wordpress.com/2008/12/16/my-christmas-spirit/" rel="nofollow">My Christmas Spirit</a></em></abbr> But having the help of others isn’t a bad thing!

It can be hard to break away and take that time for ourselves that we need to re-focus. Yet, if we don't, who knows where we'll end up. @Suddenly Slimmer - Glad this was timed just right for you Alia. It's a part of what makes doing this so gratifying for me personally. @Jewel - Well, yes, you're right Jewel. Our environment can paly a part, or how our "cards are dealt" - yet - in the end - it really is about how we, ourselves, handle all of this. And that's where I see the real key to this is - some things we can't control - one thing we can is ourselves... @Henie - Now that's a wonderful addition to the idea of looking within! Thank you, Henie, for sharing some of your own work here - it's beautiful! And it shows me a person whose soul is the real you... @Jenny Mannion — The pull in different directions, and managing that — a key point Jenny!

I am with Tom -- it is cutting off the distractions and MAKING that time for yourself that is so important. I feel so much better and more centered when I have taken that half hour to myself and yet sometimes it is still "difficult" to tear myself away from all that I am working on to claim that time. An intention of mine for the year -- for EVERY day. Thank you for the reminder! I always look forward to your Sunday quote of the week!

I think you're on to something here. Looking deep within, we have the opportunity to see what it is the really matters. Otherwise, aren't we really chasing after things without really knowing why... Thank you, Daphne, for your insight on this! @Henie - Thanks for stopping by Henie! Listening to our hearts and souls...when we do this, great things can happen. That "within" can be a scary place to venture to - yet if we really listen - we'll find that scary is also exhilarating! @Robin - Daunting and freeing -- those are great words to describe it, Robin! And getting the power back - the power to be uniquely "us" is a great place to get to! @Meleah - You're welcome, Meleah. @Barbara - Buying happiness...only to find out - it's not enough. And then what? Buy more? This leads to a spiral of continuous searching for happiness through material objects. And in so doing, we never really know ourselves at our core.
