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 permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our
presence automatically liberates others.
~Marianne Williamson
