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.

– from A Return to Love, by Marianne Williamson.

When I first read the above passage from Marianne Williamson’s book, A Return to Love, a new perspective hit me right on the face. The deepest fear is found in each one of us. However, what struck me is, “Are we also responsible for whatever we are achieving and not achieving?” We certainly do. It brought me back to some thought which I have previously. I have always been thinking of the point about what wealth can do for one. I realize after reading the passage that subconsciously I have rejected wealth because of some of the things that I might do if I am wealthy. I was focusing too much on what I did not want to do with wealth than on what I can possibly do with wealth. Repainted the images!
