The quote "Deep in their roots, all flowers keep the light" symbolizes that at the core of every being, there is a source of strength, resilience, and potential. Roots symbolize a strong foundation, and "keeping the light" represents holding onto hope, wisdom, or inner truth, even when it's not visible on the surface. This can be understood as a reminder that, just like flowers draw energy from the light to grow, we all carry an inner source of light, no matter how hidden it may seem. It speaks to the idea of maintaining hope, strength, and positivity even during difficult times. The light within, much like the roots of a flower, is always present, nurturing growth beneath the surface.
