OUR DEEPEST FEAR...

Marianne Williamson wrote, " 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 we not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't 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 when 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." This is by far my favorite quote. I think because it is so true. We live our life not wanting to be noticed, but why? Why would we shrink ourselves to a point where we go unnoticed? What is life unlived? I think part of us thinks it may be easier to ''lay low'', but then again another part wants to be heard. So which part is going to dominate you today?
