"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light and not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves... who am I to be brilliant, to be gorgeous, to be talented, to be fabulous. Actually, who are we not to be those things. You are a child of God...your playing small doesn't serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that others around you won't feel insecure. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us...it is in all of us. As we let our own light shine we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we liberate from our own fears our presence automatically liberates others."
