Poem
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 were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is 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

i read that recently too. can't remember where...can you? I don't really feel my deepest fear is being powerful beyond measure tho'. Do you?
It's from the movie Coach Carter. I agree with most of it. "We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone." thats amazing.
"our presence automatically liberates others"... I'm not sure what to make of that.
