I was in a friends car about 5 years back. She had a binder full of papers that blew open . One purple sheet landed on my lap it was ' Our Deepest Fear " by Mariana Williamson from A Return To Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles .
I have had a rough time of it lately to be honest. One thing that always brought me comfort was this writing . So I thought Id share with you using pictures between the text. This is something I need to affirm for myself. So maybe it will bring you some comfort in whatever life challenge , Fear or success in your life
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?
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.
This song always comforts me . " Im a poster girl with no poster"
