Our deepest fear!!
Yesterday while watching the movie Akeelah and the Bee I came across one of the greatest quotes in my life and I believe that you should carefully read it too.
It is a quote by Marianne Williamson for her book A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of
“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, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not 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 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.”
I certainly had a light bulb moment. 2009 does not seem intimidating at all after reflecting on the quote above. I hope you enjoy reading the quote and making 2009 your best year ever.
I found Marianne’s book at Amazon for under $10.
Have a great day.
