OUR DEEPEST FEAR

WOW! What a powerful poem full of many great nuggets of wisdom.
Upon reflection, I can see for myself how it is really the possibility of achieving the impossible that can hold me back and at the same time drive me to want to move forward with more passion and determination as well as finding people to come along for the ride.
We were born to manifest the greatness of the God who's image we are created in. It is through our relationship with Him that we can shine a great light in the world and play at our biggest game!
As we grow through our fears and let our true light shine through we are able to be witness and encouragement for others to know that they can do the same. Someone once told me: Light can overtake Darkness but Darkness cannot not over take light. Darkness only appears when the light is taken away. So don't hide your light from the rest of the world. Let your light shine bright in all that you do. You deserve it!

Enjoy.

Our Deepest Fear

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