In nature, it often looks amazingly beautiful when some plant species latch onto others, covering them with their innate beauty, especially, after one plant dies.
When humans latch onto one another to the point of covering them, it can smother them to the point of killing their inner Light.
Never be so willing to please another, you lose the Light within yourself. God created each of us to “BE a Light unto the world.” Don’t hide it “under a bushel.”
When are you going to Rise Up, as in the song ”Still Rolling Stones,” by: Lauren Daigle?
