Our Fears

OUR FEAR !

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/inspirational-stories/7830-our-fears.html
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 were 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.
