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 famous?" Actually, Who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't' serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that  Other people won't feel insecure around you. 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. ( This quote was originally attributed to Nelson Mandella. We have been told that it was not part of his inaugural speech so remains anonymous at this time.)
