Candle or mirror

Edith Wharton (1862-1937), an American writer, said, “There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.”

We have the great opportunity as humans to shine, whether by being a lit candle, or being a mirror that reflects light. There are times to be a candle, there are times to be a mirror.

But we always have the option to shine. Let’s not be in the shadows, indifferent nor inactive. Let’s be light, let’s be inspiration, let’s be those that improve and build.

A lot of light is needed in this world. Let’s be part of spreading it.
