“Go within every day and find the inner strength so that the world will not blow your candle out”
— Katherine Dunham
Simplified Meaning:
Think of yourself as a candle with a small flame. Life can be full of challenges and problems, like strong winds that can blow your flame out. To keep your flame burning, you need to look inside yourself every day to find your own strength and courage. For example, imagine someone who takes a few minutes each morning to meditate or think about what makes them feel strong and happy. This practice helps them face their day with confidence and a positive mindset. By building this habit, they're better prepared to handle tough situations without losing hope or giving up. Much like an oak tree standing tall in a storm, finding inner strength gives you stability and keeps your light from being extinguished by the storms of life.
