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, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. 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. -Marianne Williamson


Powerful words. I know  sometimes I have the habit of letting others take the shine for something I did. How many of us down play our talents just to  fit in or make others look better? Take hold of life and make it your priority to do the very best that you can in every situation. And dont be ashamed to let others know just how great you are. In the  words of the great Kanye West, "You want me to be great, but not say I'm great?"
