A Return To Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles - Marianne Williamson

“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.”

With love and originality

Pora kar saku jo woh khab dhondta hoon,
apna keh saku jise woh mehtab dhondta hoon,
kate jinki bahon mein umra woh panah dhondta hoon,
tode jinki agosh mein dum wo yaar dhondta hoon,
ji saku jise umra bhar - woh lamha dhondta hoon,
jag uthe jine ki umang jis se - aapki akhon mein woh pyar dhondta hoon
