Greetings incredible one

I was sorting out the shelves in my office today and fetching down my wonderful library from the loft when I came across Marianne Williamson’s amazing book - A Return To Love. This great book, which is based on a course in miracles, taught me so much about love and especially how there is no such thing as fear - there is just an absence of Love. This really made me look at things differently and to start to see the World as a friendly, not threatening place.

There is one quote which brought me to tears the first time I heard it and still moves me to this day. I found a clip from Coach Carter where one of his students recites it - really moving.

I’m sure you will have heard it before, but whether you have or not, really listen to the words and take them into your heart and think what could you do to play big today? What could you do now to make your own light shine and inspire others around you to shine too?

Just for reference or if you prefer to read

“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.”

Have fun
