"𝐖𝐡𝐨 𝐀𝐦 𝐈 𝐓𝐨 𝐁𝐞 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐭?"
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?”
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 other people won’t feel insecure around you.
𝐖𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐞, as children do.
We are 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 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.
