Print Friendly VersionThis is one of my favorite quotes. I’ve said this before, and recently I’ve felt the need to say this again. I will not apologize for being who I am, and neither should you. If some people feel threatened by your success, or if they’re just mad at you for being happy because they’re miserable, remember it’s their problem…not yours!
“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 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. 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.” ~M. Williamson
