Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. SALE INDIVIDUAL BRICKS 50% Our deepest fear… …is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness… …that most frightens us. SHOPLIFTERS WILL BE PROSECUTED We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of god. LEGO Your playing small doesn’t serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking… …so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. EXAM BEEP BEEP 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. NURSE AND when we let our own light shine… …we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated form our own fear… …our presence automatically liberates others. - Marianne Williamson
….and so, the child, seeing no consequences for his actions, continues in his unproductive ways, eventually becoming the burden on society that he is intended to be by his parent’s choices.Yes, he can create a dinosaur out of building blocks in an 8 hour shift. That’s marvelous, but it doesn’t forgive theft and it doesn’t forgive ditching his responsibilities. Will he be able to earn a living and support a family snapping blocks together? Or will working society end up supporting his family for him?I am unimpressed with the message that “eastern thought” or “new thought” brings us. They are only viable in a time of surplus and ease. As such, they are the province of the rich and idle. The poor are to busy fighting for a living to notice them.
