Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate,

but that we are powerful beyondmeasure.
It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us.
We ask ourselves. Who amI to be brilliant,

gorgeous, handsome, talentedandfabulous?

Actually, whoare younot to be?

.

Youare a childof God

Your playingsmall does not serve the world

.

There is nothing enlightenedabout shrinking

so that other people wont feel insecure aroundyou .

We were bomto make manifest the gloryof Godwthinus.

It is not just insome; it is ineveryone.
And as we let our ownlight shine, we consciously give
,

i
other people permssionto dothe same.

As weare liberatedfromour fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.
- NelsonMandela
