the-light

I have read this phrase many a times, I always wanted to mention it in my blog someday but couldn't really find an instance to make it simple for understanding, phrase is "if you can't be a source of light be a mirror that can reflect light". Here comes other instance from Delhi metro that becomes source of inspiration. I observed an old lady standing with around a 3 years old child in her arms. I was not in a position to offer a seat as I was standing myself, however I did see two young girls sitting who could have offered seat and hence I requested them to do so and I must say one of them was really kind to get up. I thanked the young women for her assistance and silently felt the sense of accomplishment. I assume I did manage to create an impact but the best part is that I am learning to be the mirror that can reflect light. When would you start being one?
