Default A Return to Love By Marianne Williamson

Hey All,

I wanted to share this wonder piece I came across. ENJOY!

A Return To Love

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?
Actually, who are we not to be?
You are a child of God!
Your playing small doesn't serve the World.
There's nothing enlightening about shrinking so that
Other people won't feel insecure around you.
We were born to 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 others people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fears,
Our presence automatically liberates others.

by Marianne Williamson

This is a great quote. I think most people do not realize how afraid they are of their own power with in them, and how much they suppress themselves.

I feel that the quote Steve has on his courage to live consciously article is similar and will also post it:

Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature,
nor do the children of men as a whole experience it.
Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure.
Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.
To keep our faces toward change and behave like free spirits
in the presence of fate is strength undefeatable.
- Helen Keller
