Are we fearing ourselves?

“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.”                                                                                                  
                                                            ~ Marianne Williamson

I love this quote. If we all could just change our paradigm enough to begin to really understand this concept, we could step up and fulfill our wildest dreams of intelligence and the sharing of good things. Most of us don't even try to put into thoughts, much less words, what we want to be "when we grow up." 

It is my hope that we can work together to get you beyond that mindset and on to bigger and more exciting things.
