Marianne Williamson quote "Our deepest fear..."

Thanks to Jan for this quote. (Glad you're home safe and sound.)

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?
Your playing small doesn’t serve the world.
There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you.
We were born to make manifest the glory 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.
~Marianne Williamson~

One of my favorite quotes....first heard about 10 years ago when I was a massage therapist working for a new age hypnotist...but someone who also supported my call to ordained ministry...
Very profound words, I love this one a lot, the first time I heard it was form my professor.
