Our deepest fear

I've watched this film several times now since I got it from a friend. It's really mind provoking and challenges me as an individual to shine out. It's about a coach who decides to turn things round in the town he schooled in 3o years ago. It was a rough journey for him and the rest of the guys in his team. Figured out which film I'm talking about?? OK, I'll help u out.. It's "COACH CARTER". I believe most of us out there must have come across this spectacular film.. OK, time for my reviews.. The film revolves in a 90's setting of a high school in which its basketball players are groomed up by a highly rated and respected player, Kim Carter(Samuel J. Jackson). He wastes no time in laying out his principles to the "student athletes" in Richmond High School. Things take wild turns throughout the entire film.. I must point out that the cast was quite nice but the actors out to be younger players... A note to the directors... Funny, there's nothing much to point out except that it contains some explicit scenes... I'll personally recommend a "PG13" rating for it.. I open up a question for you all.. I guess some of you might not answer truthfully, some might not know what to say but deep inside our hearts, we know the undeniable truth.. I pose the question to you now: What is your deepest fear?? Take your time and feel free to drop your answers or opinions.. Before I take my leave, I'll like you all to read through 1 of my favorite quotes of all time.. To all my friends, this is 1 thing you never knew about my motivation... It goes like this:
OUR DEEPEST FEAR

"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 most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually who are we not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. 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 everyone. 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".
