Our deepest fear



This wonderful poem above is one of the most inspirational quotes of all time! Most people often mistakenly think that it is a quote by Nelson Mandela. He cited this quote at his inaugural address in 1994. But the real writer is a woman called Marianne Williamson and the poem is a short cut-out from her book "A return to love: Reflections on the Principles of a Course in Miracles". This intellectually stimulation quote has been recited in many movies and has become widely known.

"Our deepest fear" - movie: Coach Carter 

The wisdom underlying this poem is broadening and helpful as well. It says that by being unconfident and insecure you make yourself shrink. This is neither beneficial for your development as well as for the people's around you. You need to shine and be strong-minded in order to do something for your own good which might have an effect on other people too.

Read this poem slowly and soak in this inspiring wisdom :-)
