To my inner "Shrinking Violet"...

"Tryin to shut me up, tryin to hold me down
I'm never turning off 'cause I'm a light
Lock me up in cuffs, throw me to the ground
I'm never turning off 'cause I'm a light"
~~Lighthouse by Fantasia Barrino

Everyday we are faced with challenging ourselves, pushing ourselves, striving for more and overcoming our shrinking violet. I heard the song "Lighthouse" the other day and connected more with the chorus than the verses however I digress. The chorus to Fantasia's song has become a personal theme song for me when I feel Violet "entering the building", I hum the chorus a little. It sounds cliche however it helps to motivate and focus my energy positively because Shrinking Violet...is a trip.

How do you keep Violet away...?
