Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?'

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 all of us. 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.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2965</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have impeached myself by resigning. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47317]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have impeached myself by resigning.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lent is a time of prayer, but not for gloomy faces.
