"light changes dark.
i doesn't mater the size of the flame -
it's the keeping it lit that counts."

When we enroll in school, we know that we will be taught lessons, take tests, pass or fail, listen or close our ears. We understand that every day will be an opportunity to learn not only about knowledge but about fellow students and teachers. We will choose which parts of our selves we wish to display and the particles we wish to hide. The real question is will we show up to the best of our abilities.
These expectations are true for human beings in physical form. Will we show up for life and give it our all? Will we hide behind fears or bravely make healthy choices? Will we stand with framed certificates and documentations to prove our worth or will we extend human kindness as our badge of human decency?
If our motivation runs parallel to our spiritual connection, we can accomplish deeds on varying levels. We respect the spirit in each person not as competition, but as a joint effort for peaceful living. Whether our heart's flame is a vibrant flare or a flickering spec from a burned down wick, it is imperative to let it shine in the midst of our darkness.
