Our Deepest Fear
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure…. 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….” Marianne Williamson, A Return To Love.

How Do We Live Our Larger Life? How Do We Create?.
Everything begins with thought. Thoughts become ideas, and ideas are
things. What we think and the thoughts we keep
in our mind determine what we create. It’s critical how we use our mind.
