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's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other
people won't feel insecure around you.
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 people
permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear,
Our presence automatically liberates others.—Marianne Williamson
This just became my favorite poem.. Sorry Adaudo, it beats Rejoice by Gladys Casely-Hayford. Omg!!! I loved that poem in Jss1 . I just hope I got her name right. So anyways I've been thinking about what the whole poem means to me.
I wonder what my greatest fear is.. lol. I actually know, I don't think i'll be sharing that though. So I feel funny, really funny. *sigh* lips sealed ... soon .
