Other People’s Words
Sometimes it just feels right to present something that someone else wrote. After all, there are many wonderful passages out there that can be quite helpful and inspiring to us. And sometimes when we just don’t feel it inside of ourselves, it’s good to go with the flow and not try to force something to come out. So here are some words that have been extremely helpful to me, as they’ve given me a new perspective on just who and what I am:
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 enlightening about shrinking so that other people won’t feel unsure around you.
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. 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.
