Our deepest Fear

I thought you all might enjoy this. It is very inspiring.....
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 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 were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone.
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.
—Nelson Mandela

Something just made me want to share it today. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
(I have a file called favorite quotes that I keep tidbits that I like in. I read it sometimes too. I have stuff from Oprah, Eleanor Rooosevelt, Walt Whitman, too many to name - that just hit me the right way so I keep them and reread when I'm feeling down. Doing so lifts my spirits.)
