"I want to give light but not like the candle. I don't want to loose myself in the process...Generosity and self-preservation should be allowed together". I agree, cause in life we need to be Generous sometimes because the more you give, the more the blessing will come. But some people get use to your generosity so they take it for granted.
This has touched my heart, for I, myself, loves. Unconditionally giving a piece of me until i ran out of me. Lighting up their dim worlds as slowly, slowly.....I am gone. And as soon as the candle ran out it self, it's light want shine anymore. This is how this quote touch me in many things and I'll state them below. I loved or should we say love the person. On our first days on being together, I was giving myself to much. I was lighting up her world, like how my mom light up our worlds. But slowly I was losing sight of me, even though I, myself is the candle but the light was fading away. i did not preserve some of myself, for I was the candle.
The meaning of this quote is that, you give light to everyone, light up their world and guide them, but as you do this, don't forget to preserve yourself as well. do not lose yourself on the process of loving someone else. This works on person personality that you'll limit the too much of being a generous person and we need to prevent the abusive of the people. Coco Martin is the one of the actor in " Ang Probinsyano" who has help a lot of people and in return, nothing given to him an return. He received blessing instead which made him successful.
I've learn a lot from this quote, especially in the topic of friendship. You give things and help people but most of the time the people who gave too much care or attention will end up losing themselves. In the middle of the process we forget ourselves which is normal but in life the most important thing is you; yourself. Being generous and all is a good thing to be but we should always keep a part of ourselves to us. No matter what people think of you, stay in touch of yourself. Life isn't all about giving, its also keeping. If you gone, a part of you is gone or being brought to others. So cherish yourself and focus on you. Life isn't life when you not you anymore enjoying it.
