With everyone praying over test and various stresses I thought that this message would be of some inspiration to a number of people who read my blog and my notes. I was directed to this quote from the movie Akeelah and the Bee because this quote inspires me. I hope that it uplifts you.
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 is 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.
~ Marianne Williamson
So my friends take this inspiration and go and let your light shine for others to see so that they may do the same. And should you forget or doubt just ask yourself, " Who am I not to be?"
