Don't dim your light to accommodate someone else's smallness, we are all born to shine big and bright. the universe is expanding and you are part of the universe, so expanding is part of nature. if someone makes you want to retract, notice, and slowly back away, they are not for you and you are not for them. or better still, find it within yourself to expand and shine your light anyway.
flowers don't open and close according to who is walking by, they open and show their beauty regardless.
Light up no matter who is around you. when you do, you make it easier for your people to find you. and if others don't want to be around you or you make them feel uncomfortable, it's because you are shining light on the fact that they are dimming to fit in themselves, and by you choosing to shine bright you may just inspire them to turn on their light too. or not. keep your light on anyway, and just watch as life shines right back at you.
