This is one of my most favorite quotes. I don't even really know who Marianne Williamson is, but this just "clicks" to me. I first saw it painted on the wall of my yoga studio, and I was really depressed at the time, so when I read it, I cried a bit and thought "YEAH!"
“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. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
Marianne Williamson quote
I have a copy hanging in my locker at work.-you know for days when I hate my job, It usually does the trick. Don't know why.
