You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you.
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.â€
Exerpt from Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom
Before the show ended, Morrie read Koppel one the the letters he'd received. Since the first "Nightline" program, there had been a great deal of mail. One particular letter came from a schoolteacher in Pennsylvania who taught a special class of nie children; every child in the class had suffered the death of a parent.
"Here's what I sent her back," Morrie told Koppel perching his glasses gingerly in his nose and ears. "'Dear Barbara...I was very moved by your letter. I feelthe work you have done withe the children who have lost a parent is very important. I also lost a parent at an early age...'"
Suddenly, with the cameras still humming, Morrie adjusted the glasses. He stopped, but his lip, and began to choke up. Tears fell down his nose. "'I lost my mother when I was a child...and it was quite a blow to me...I wish I'd had a group like yours where I would have been able to talk about my sorrows. I would have joined your group because...'"
His voice cracked.
"'...because I was so lonely...'"
"Morrie," Koppel said, "that was seventy years ago your mother died. The pain still goes on?"
"You bet," Morrie whispered.
