"People are like stained - glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within." ― Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

This is a powerful metaphor for life. When everything is going well, it’s easy to feel confident, inspired, and creative. But what about when things feel uncertain? When challenges arise, self-doubt creeps in, or life feels overwhelming?

That’s when your inner light matters most. Growth happens in the in-between spaces—the times of uncertainty, rest, or transformation.

In a world that often measures success by external achievements, it’s easy to believe that we shine only when everything around us is bright. But true radiance doesn’t come from perfect circumstances—it comes from within.

Just as stained glass glows when light passes through it, we shine brighter when we share our light with others. A kind word, an act of generosity, or simply being present for someone can illuminate the path for both of you. Be the light!

Happy Monday!
