Just to give credit to whom it is due, this quote comes from Marianne Williamson's 1993 book 'A Return to Love". It is widely attributed to Nelson Mandela.
> > OUR DEEPEST FEAR > > 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 the Universe. 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 the Divine > that is within us. > It is not just in some of us; > it is in everyone. > As we let our 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. -- .·´¯`·.¸ ><((((º> .·´¯`·.¸¸.·´¯`·.¸ <º))))>< ,.·´¯`·.¸.·´¯`·.¸ ><((((º> ¸.·´¯`·..·´¯`·.¸ ><((((º> .·´¯`·.¸¸.·´¯`·.¸.·.¸.·´¯`·.¸ ><((((º> .·´¯`·.¸¸.·´¯`·.¸ <º))))>< .·´¯`·.¸.·´¯`·.¸ ><((((º> ¸.·´¯`·..·´¯`·.¸ Eric Lilius Box 27 Eagle Lake, Ontario, Canada K0M 1M0 email:elil...@halhinet.on.ca ph: 705-754-9859 fax: 705-286-1911 "Our past endeavors at long-term forecasting afford us little confidence in being able to anticipate seminal changes in global economics and finance."
