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 frightens us.

We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and 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 wont feel insecure about you. We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us.

It is 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."

~ From A RETURN TO LOVE by Marianne Williamson

Hey , Tammie ! I am doing well! Thanks. And you ?????

I am going to D.C. this afternoon, The rain has finally stopped and
it feels like Spring. What's going on with you girlie ? Sounds like we were all
going through stuff - but it also sounds like people are happier and more
focused on living one day at a time and getting where they need to go ! That is
a beautiful thing !

I hope your little boy is feeling better and that you aredoing well in your amazing process of transformation !

Love and Blesings ! Daria

That's cool! Going to D.C., I'm going to take the kiddo's down there one of these days, take some tours. I have been invited to D.C. in August for a Poets convention, but won't be able to go. It would be so cool though. Anyways I'm doing okay, hope your day is spectacular!!!!!

Many hugs and hope too,
Tammie

Years ago I read this book.
Very powerful. Life altering.
And now, when I need it more than ever,
one of my favorite parts shows up.
Thank you so much for posting this.
I find I need to be reminded of this from time to time.
