Our Deepest Fear
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
But that we are more powerful beyond measure.
If we are truthful with ourselves, we will admit,
that it is our flaws that we treasure.
It is not our darkness we are afraid of, but it is our light.
We are afraid of our true potential.
That is what instills fright.
So we hide it from ourselves and keep it confidential.
It is not the thought of feeling small,
or even the thought of failing and having to fall.
Our deepest fear is us liberating ourselves and our mind,
and seeing our full potential, not just what we've already shined.
For if we let our true light shine through,
then we automatically let those around us shine too.
