OUR DEEPEST FEAR
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 is not just in some of
us; it is 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.
