“There are two ways of spreading light.
To be the candle… or to be the mirror that reflects it.”

Reblogged this on Teacher as Transformer and commented:
This post is a great reminder of the role we play in the life of the world and others who we share it with. It follows yesterday’s re-blog about courage. Everyone has courage and there is a runway for them. In the busyness of daily life, we lose track of the runway and need to stop, be quiet, and reorient our self in our world and with others. This will help us and the others we share life with locally and globally.
Bless your heart Ivon, for sharing along this post, and for being the bringer of light that you are. Namaste, Gina
Gina, it was a wonderful post that needed to be shared. You are welcome.
Take care,
Ivon
Great Post. Inspiring too.
A man must elevate himself by his own mind, not degrade himself. The mind is the friend of the conditioned soul, and his enemy as well. (Bhagavad-gita 6.5)
This is a wonderful quote Lvsrao, thank you so much for sharing it here
Namaste, Gina
Love them ! thank you!
Thanks so much dear Ute
So glad you’ve enjoyed them!
The way I see it, Gina, you are the light and your blog is the mirror. Thank you for shining.
Awww… Kozo! That is a lovely comment. I love that, and how it aligns with my intention with every post. Blessings to you my friend, Gina
And off I got to Google Edith Wharton.
Wonderful words!
Yes! She put it so well with this amazing quote didn’t she? Thanks for your comment

St Fracis of Assisi …
Yes indeed, he was a wonderfully wise man who taught us that ‘where there is darkness’ let us bring light. Thank you GFS. Blessings, Gina
The candle light or the mirror that reflects it is a quote that inspires me to be one or the other – or both – but to be sure the darkness is not in or around me. The key is “A mind at peace” and that only comes with God’s amazing grace. God Bless You!
Jan, your words always ring so true! Yes, through God’s amazing grace let us all cherish peace, and continue to spread our loving light in the world. Thank you and God Bless You too my sweet friend!
You certainly know how to reflect the light
Your kind comment means so much to me! And especially coming from another spreader of light such as yourself
I have heard the first quotation many times but this is the first I have heard it attributed.
So glad you found it again here, and can attribute it to the wise Dr Dyer. Thanks for your visit and comment
I love that Edith Wharton quotation.
I agree! Isn’t that a lovely one? Thanks for the comment
