FREEDOM
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 frightens us.
We ask ourselves,
Who I am I to be brilliant, georgeous, talented, and fabulous?
Actually who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small doesn't serve the world.
There is nothing enlightening about shrinking so
That other people won't feel insecure around you.
We were born to
Manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone.
And as we let our light shine
We unconsciously give to other people
Permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear,
Our presence automatically liberates others.
