My deepest fear- A quote

So you all know I love quotes. I found this one on the wall in one of my professor's offices and fell in love with it. It is from Nelson Mandela's inaugral speech but after some research found that it was orignally written by Marianne Williamson. In either case its a great passage that truely makes me think about this past weekend:


"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."
