COURAGE

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate,
our deepest fear is that we are all powerful
beyond measure
It is is our light not our darkness, that most
frighten us.
We ask ourselves,
Who am i to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented,
fabulous?
Actually, who are we not to be?
You are a child of God, your playing small
does not serve the world, there is nothing
enlightening about shrinking so that other
people won't feel insecure around you.
We are meant to shine as children do.
We are born to make manifest the glory
of God that is within 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.
