Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate,
but that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant,
gorgeous, handsome, 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 within us.
It is not just in some; it is in everyone.
And, as we let our own light shine,
we consciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.
(used by Nelson Mandela for his innaugural speech)







My greatest joy is that we are everything
and that we are free and expansive with total abundance.
It is our light, The light that lets us laugh.
We say to ourselves “i am brilliant,
gorgeous, handsome, talented and fabulous”
Exactlly, I am.
I am.
Playing big serves all.
Expanding is enlightenment.
Others are me, i am others, …we dance.
We are born and reborn to make manifest the glory of God
it is in us all, we are the waves that are the ocean of God
and as we let this light shine
we give to all as others give to all
as we are free
we are
freely joyously, expansively IT.

I think that, that beautiful quote was made for me-sometimes I fear my own power and potential. What a great encouragement that was! Thank You.
