A Return To Love

in #love7 years ago (edited)

This is one of my all-time favourite poetry by the stunningly beautiful Marianne Williamson. It serves as a reminder that we are all equally talented and gorgeous in every sense of the word - own it and allow your light to shine upon others!! As you rise, you will undoubtedly give others permission to rise with you.

A Return To Love by Marianne Williamson

The Return To Love

“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.”
