who is he?

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 DARKNESS THAT THE MOST FRIGHTENS US.

YOU’RE PLAYING SMALL

DOES NOT SERVE THE WORLD

THERE IS NOTHING ENLIGHTENED

ABOUT SHRINKING

SO THAT OTHERS PEOPLE

WON´T FEEL INSECURE AROUND YOU

WE WERE ALL MEANT TO SHINE

AS CHILDREN DO.

IT IS NOT JUST IN SOME OF US,

IT IS IN EVERYONE.

AN 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

Nosso medo mais profundo

Não é de sermos incapazes

Nosso medo mais profundo é de sermos mais poderosos do que imaginamos

È nosso luz,

Não nossa escuridão que mais nos apavora.

Você agindo pequeno

Não serve ao mundo

Não há nada de proveitoso em retrair-se

Para as outras pessoas não se sentirem inseguras ao seu redor.

Nós fomos feitos para brilhar

Assim, também, como as crianças brilham.

Isto não é apenas para os escolhidos

Mas para todos nós.

Ao permitirmos que nossa luz brilhe

Nós, inconscientemente,

Fazemos com que as outras pessoas permitam-se o mesmo.

Quando nos libertamos do nosso próprio medo

Fazemos com que nossa presença automaticamente liberte os outros.

Nelson Mandela

(tradução yasodhara Barata)

Nosso medo mais profundo é de percebermos que somos especiais e que podemos fazer a diferença nesse mundo. Constantemente percebemos toda a nossa sombra: o que somos de ruins, o que não apreciamos em nós. Mas esquecemos de olhar a maravilha que somos. Nossa luz, sempre é posta de lado.Temos medo de termos a consciência de que podemos fazer a diferença, se usarmos nosso potencial maior .Na maioria das vezes nos sabotamos ,nos escondemos, calamos diante da vida . Deixamos de liderar as mudanças por não acreditarmos em nós. Deixamos de investir na vida e nos preocupamos mais com a morte diária e com os fracassos. Temos medo da nossa capacidade de amar por isso focamos no ódio e na violência. Temos medo da nossa capacidade de criar e em vez disto destruímos a nos mesmos. Duvidamos a todo instante da nossa capacidade: quem sou eu para ser brilhante, atraente, talentoso, fabuloso...?Na verdade quem é você para não ser? Você serve ao mundo quando utiliza todo o seu ser e ajuda os outros a encontrar essa liberdade interna.

Acredito muito em você. Deixe sua luz brilhar

Beijinhos

HE IS NELSON MANDELA

Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela
He is born 18 July 1918. He is a former President of South Africa, the first to be elected in fully representative democratic elections. Before his presidency, Mandela was an anti-apartheid activist and leader of the African National Congress and its armed wing Umkhonto we Sizwe. He spent 27 years in prison, much of it on Robben Island, on convictions for crimes that included sabotage committed while he spearheaded the struggle against apartheid.

Among opponents of apartheid in South Africa and internationally, he became a symbol of freedom and equality, while the apartheid government and nations sympathetic to it condemned him and the ANC as communists and terrorists. The United States still lists him as a terrorist, though the United States Congress is considering removing the designation.

Following his release from prison on February 11, 1990, his switch to a policy of reconciliation and negotiation helped lead the transition to multi-racial democracy in South Africa. Since the end of apartheid, he has been widely praised, even by former opponents.

Mandela has received more than one hundred awards over four decades, most notably the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993. He is currently a celebrated elder statesman who continues to voice his opinion on topical issues. In South Africa he is often known as Madiba, an honorary title adopted by elders of Mandela's clan. The title has come to be synonymous with Nelson Mandela.

Mandela has frequently credited Mahatma Gandhi for being a major source of inspiration in his life, both for the philosophy of non-violence and for facing adversity with dignity.
