Dreams Rekindled!

As life meanders through the beautiful streets of achievements at times and at times through the rough patches on the highway… I ask myself…
Do I still have it in me? The fighter, the dreamer. Or has the little success made me complacent?

How desperately I wanted to win once!! Just ten years back when I was new to Mumbai… with all the directionless passion and the reality fraught with uncertainties, I still had an assurance of achieving my dreams.

As I was in the process of pondering through these thoughts, a dear friend shared this with me. It urged me to rekindle the fire, only this time with more equilibrium.

“Our Deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our Light, not out Darkness, that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you NOT to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone.
And as 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.”

Nelson Mandela, Inaugural Speech,South Africa,1994.

I want to dream… and dream big!! My dreams, my aspirations cannot belong to me alone. My undefeated presence & my success have a lofty purpose. It transcends the realm of ‘I ME MYSELF’. I owe it to the mystic power that once assured me of my dreams, ten years back.

Thought will share it with you.

Love,
Manav
