i know where you got this.

"A candle loses none of its light by lighting another candle."

i know she asked a question, i don't mean to, sorry if i'm misunderstood...

You don't lose anything by helping other people, you just share what you already have.

You lose nothing by helping another person out you just share what goodness and light you already have

You got nothing to lose by spreading your happiness and kindness.

You don't lose anything by sharing something that you already have, whether it be wisdom, money, friendship, etc. Nice quote:)

helping someone will not hurt, but if u dont then the other person (candle) will not learn..or get help..so u r helpin them.

hmmm... to me, that means that going out and making someones day, even if its just smiling at them or treating someone nicely even if they're different from you.... that kind of thing is what you should be doing, because why should you deserve to be happy and they shouldn't? Plus, you don't lose anything. haha i think thats what that means... hope i made sense

one of fiery personality (like a poet) loses nothing by lighting a fire up under the radar of another

it's about imparting your gift upon others, inspiring, assisting, sharing, may it be your peers or the next generation, or even your elders

I think it means that a perosn ot thing never loses hope or life because we always move on to something new

Shadowspoet:

You gave the best response. Shame no one felt the filcker of you flame.

Your light will not fade by lending a hand it will shine on, on the other's that you have given light.

you have nothing to loose by helping someone

It doesn't take anything away from you to help someone
