Our Deepest Fear


Californiaman

Recommended Posts

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 is 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.

Weird. I knew those words. But not from where?

 

Maybe Glenn Beck quoted them..........

I discovered them in a film that Lawrence Fishburn was in.

He played a college professor who was helping a middle-school girl prepare for the national Scripts Spelling Bee. He had her read it out loud, of course part of the poem had been edited out.

It wouldn't surprise me at all if Glen Beck had said that.
