| 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 enlightening about shrinking so that
 other people won't feel unsure 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.
