Dreams vs Reality (cont.) Be a Perfect 10

Here's a quick test for you:
Close your eyes and imagine yourself on a deserted island, completely alone and stripped of all the roles you currently have:
It's just you and the universe and God.
On a scale of 1 to 10 how would you rate yourself---where 1 is totally worthless, and 10 being a perfect spiritual being, created in the image of God.
Here is a wonderful quote by author Marianne Williamson from her book A Return to Love:
"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."
I hope this inspires you to become a Perfect 10 in your own eyes!
