Our Deepest Fear

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 and fabulous?
Actually who are we not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small doesn't 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 when 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.

Cliche'

So, you know how everyone always talks abot the 'mysterious old pizza found under the bed' cliche' when a room gets cleaned; or, the 'old, moldy sandwich found in the school desk at the end of the year' cliche'? Well, I got a mix of the two. I found a paper bag that had an old sandwich in it when I was cleaning my room today. This was from girls camp in June. Scary.
I was cleaning my room when I found it. That's probably the worst that I have let my room get. And it wasn't even that dirty. It was just that I had stuff piled around the edges of my room and it happened to be one of the things that got burried. I AM ashamed of myself, and know that from now on, I shouldn't be allowed to bring food into my room unless I am bout to eat it.
