What’s Your Greatest Fear?

July 25, 2012

What is your greatest fear?

One of mine is that when things are going well, or I am happy, that it will be taken away.

I talk about this and more in my latest MindBodyGreen post. Please click here and let me know what your greatest fear is.

The more we see how similar we all are, the less scary they feel, the less alone we feel. Incidentally, being alone seems to be a lot of folks number one fear.

As always, thank you for your support in my writings that are outside my own blog, especially. You all mean the world to me.

Our Greatest Fear

by Marianne Williamson

Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate,

but that we are powerful beyond measure.

 

It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us.

We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant,

gorgeous, handsome, talented and 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 within us.

It is not just in some; it is in everyone.

 

And, as we let our own light shine, we consciously give

other people permission to do the same.

As we are liberated from our fear,

our presence automatically liberates others.

    So true!! I love it. Every day I struggle to overcome self sabotaging behavior caused by extremely low self worth. It’s not easy but so worth it!
