- " 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 and 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 about you. We were
born to 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."
