My Trials in Pursuit of Glory"Men are haunted by the vastness of eternity. And so we ask ourselves: will our actions echo across the centuries? Will strangers hear our names long after we are gone, and wonder who we were, how bravely we fought, how fiercely we loved?" Odysseus from the movie Troy

NUMBER 7!


Friday, July 15, 2005

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 dark that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people don't feel insecure around you.We are all meant to shine as children do. Its not just in some of us; its in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsiously give other people to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

...or is it...

I think that this quote is totally wrong and false because I think our deepest fear is that we are inadequate.   We fear that we will not live up to our true potential, that is why so many of us stress ourselves out because we want to be not only the best we can be but the best.  Its human nature to strive to be the best.  Our deepest fear along with being inadequate is that we will die unknown.  That is why I have the quote at the top of my xanga site.  Mary Shelley's book Frankenstein deals with this very issue.  I suggest you read it.  However, after saying all of this I do agree with one part of the quote:  "Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people don't feel insecure around you.We are all meant to shine as children do. Its not just in some of us; its in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsiously give other people to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."  The rest of the quote when taken out of the context it is put in makes very good sense.  None of us want to be small and insignificant and if there is a person around us who is more "powerful" than us then we will try to be more powerful than that particular person.  Survival of the fittest, competition, human nature.  Our fear is one of inadequacy and failure.  "Failure is not an option."  We want to be the best. Well that is my thought for the night as of now if I think anymore I will add it.  Semper Fi
