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, to be gorgeous,
talented, and fabulous. Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small doesn't serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking
so that others won't feel insecure around you.
We are born to make manifest the glory of God within us.
And as we let our light shine, we consciously give others
permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.
