“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.

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.”

&quot;Never frown because you never know who is falling in love with your smile..&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;The best things in life are unseen, that&#039;s why we close our eyes when we kiss, cry, and dream..&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Normal is only a mode on a washing machine..&quot;
