"When we look at a candle, we say that the candle is radiating light, heat, and fragrance. The light is one kind of energy it emits, the heat is another, and the fragrance is a third kind of energy it can offer us
in the here and the now."
"If we are truly alive, we can see that we aren't very different from the candle. We are offering our insight, our breath, our views right now. Every moment you have a view, whether about yourself, the world, or how to be happy, and you emit that view. You produce thought and your thought carries your views.
You are continued by your views and your thinking. Those are the children you give birth to every moment. And that is your true continuation."
Thich Nhat Hanh
