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 are all meant to shine as children do...
it is in everyone.
And as we let our own lights shine,
we unconsciously give other people
permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.

Mandela is one of my heroes. Great quote, great image, great way to end the day! Thanks, Gypsy!
Have got another photo to send you of the French doors. You were definitely here.
The quote left me disturbed and probing into myself.
Its a blessing to allow oneself to think that our presence liberates others.
Thanks for that Jeanan.
Courage and passion to you.
