In other words...

I've blogged many times about what a collector of quotes I am. Sometimes I sit and read back through the book of quotes that I keep to get inspiration--and sometimes I even find conviction through them. If they affect me that much, perhaps they will touch someone else as well. I thought I'd start sharing some once again here and there as they move me.

"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 you not to be?

You are a child of God.

Your playing small doesn't serve the world.

There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.

We are all meant to shine, as children do.

We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.

It's 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."

~Marianne Williamson
