Nuestro Temor Mas Profundo
Nuestro temor más profundo no es que nos son insuficientes. Nuestro temor más profundo es que somos poderosos más allá de la medida. Es nuestra luz, no nuestra oscuridad, que más nos asusta. Nos preguntamos, quién soy yo para ser brillante, magnífico, ¿talentoso y fabuloso? ¿En realidad quienes somos no? Eres un hijo de Dios. Su pequeño juego no sirve al mundo.  No hay nada iluminado sobre reducción lo que otras personas no se sienten inseguros a tu alrededor. Todos estamos destinados a brillar como lo hacen los niños. Nacimos para hacer manifiesto la gloria de Dios que está dentro de nosotros. No es sólo en algunos de nosotros; es en todo el mundo. Y cuando dejamos nuestra propia luz brille, inconscientemente damos a otras personas permiso para hacer lo mismo. Como nos estamos liberados de nuestro propio miedo, nuestra presencia libera automáticamente a otros.
I chose this poem, written by Marianne Williamson (pictured above), because of its importance to me and the universal message that goes along with it. Though originally the poem is written in english, the spanish translation symbolizes that we all must overcome fear. The vocabulary is relatively basic, with a few extensive words here and there, but words such as nuestro, cuando, and como are all words that have been covered in previous chapters. One would need to be fluent in order to understand this version so I have also posted the english version below for anybody who is interested. Read the words carefully and determine how they reflect you and your fears.
Our Deepest Fear (English Version)
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 and fabulous? Actually who are we not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't 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 when 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.
