That is very cool.

Thank you for sharing!  I'm making some inspirational wall art for me and my family, and I love this quote.  I'll have to borrow this idea for one of my pieces.

Here's the quote if anyone wants to print it out...

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.

On a slightly different note, but a wonderful thought, here's the one I have now placed on the wall next to my desk at work:

Quiet Minds Cannot Be Perplexed Or Frightened

“Quiet minds cannot be perplexed or frightened, but go on in fortune or misfortune at their own private pace, like a clock during a thunderstorm.”
--Robert Louis Stevenson

(With a thank you to Steven, who shared it so that I noticed it.)
