MY DEEPEST FEAR IS NOT THAT I AM INEDAQUATE. MY DEEPEST FEAR IS THAT I AM POWERFUL BEYOND MEASURE. IT IS MY LIGHT, NOT MY DARKNESS, THAT MOST FRIGHTENS ME. I ASK MYSELF, WHO AM I TO BE BRILLIANT, GORGEOUS, TALENTED, AND FABULOUS? ACTUALLY WHO AM I NOT TO BE? I AM A CHILD OF GOD. MY PLAYING SMALL DOES NOT SERVE THE WORLD. THERE IS NOTHING ENLIGHTENED ABOUT SHRINKING SO THAT OTHER PEOPLE WON'T FEEL INSECURE AROUND ME. I WAS BORN TO MANIFEST THE GLORY OF GOD THAT IS WITHIN ME. IT'S NOT JUST IN ME; IT'S IN EVRRYONE. AND AS I LET MY OWN LIGHT SHINE, I UNCONSCIOUSLY GIVE OTHER PEOPLE PERMISSION TO DO THE SAME. AS I AM LIBERATED FROM MY OWN FEAR, MY PRESENCE AUTOMATICALLY LIBERATES OTHERS.
I love this poem, it fits me in so many ways, but to tell you a little more about me, I am a determined actress. I like to play and watch basketball. I love to watch movies. I don't like to talk much because I learn more when I'm quiet than I do when I talk.
