Our Deepest Fear

Hi! I'm Amy. New to Blogspot. :)
Can't wait to spend countless hours and hours on here!!

I thought that I would start this off with one of the most impactful poems I've ever read. The Book is called, "A Return to Love," and was written by Marianne Williamson.

Our Deepest Fear....


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 we 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 in some of us; it's in everyone.
And when 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.


Well said!!! That's all for now!!!

Peace and Love,

Amy
