your beloved, your husband.

were there, but the other is not.

with your presence and there is no need for anybody.

Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?

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.
