The Candle and the Mirror

Happy Diwali! One of my favorite festivals that celebrates the light and love around us.

I was reflecting on one of my favorite quotations:

"There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.” — Edith Wharton

Everyone has inner light. On great days, it illuminates. On hard days, it flickers and feels dim.

It’s a good reminder that we don’t always need to be the source of light. It’s more than enough to redirect it by being kind and caring.

Light will always lift — no matter where it comes from.
