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 and talented?
Actually, who are we not to be?
You are child of God. Your playing small does not serve the would.
There is nothing enlightening about shrinking so the other people won't feel unsure around you.
We are born to manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It isn't in just some of us, it is in all of everyone.

As we let out 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.
