Dear friend and subscriber,
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.
