I heard about a woman who cleaned houses and offices. The quality of her work was nonpareil.

Customers would say, “This place looks beautiful — better than when anyone else cleans.”

What did she do differently?

She always cleaned the light bulbs and fixtures.

There’s practical advice here, but it’s also a beautiful metaphor about how we can spread light and how tending to that source can bring about renewed, far-reaching beauty.
