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, 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.”                       (Source: Return to Love by Marianne Williamson)

How difficult it would be to consume one impossible thought in the morning, well, there would be no difficulty, we can consume anything in the morning, we are most receptive to anything, or let's say we are hungry and we can eat anything. And, if that be the case why not eat tasty and healthy food. 

This blog is simply started to share one impossible thought in the morning every day , and it may end up becoming a year full of reflections when compiled. For most of us, remarkable changes are on the way, since it is intended to be a program of mind relinquishment. Anything that is written is true, and truth does not need data to support it, I mean how many times you read the report before you say that there'll be a sun rise tomorrow, or the rose plant will only bear rose flowers and not marigold, the truth does not need data or say proof, YOU don't need proof, I don't need proof. 

Some may ask, aren't we living in the word when problems from terrorism to pollution surround us? Yes, we are living in such a world, who can doubt it, but it's not the problem that surrounds us, it's us who hover over a problem. We are addicted to frailties, neurosis, oblivion, failures and hatred. Because, we conform. We conform, since every one else is like this, why shouldn't we be. Since everyone is reading news, why not we, since every one else is involved in office politics, why not we, and the list is endless. You can add any number of items, we are just conformers, simply sheep in a herd. And, that, I believe is an insult to human dignity, we needn't habitually conform every single time, we are gracious creatures, the only other creators after the creator, we needn't not be sheep in human form. 

We must reclaim our dignity.
