“The torch is the idea of enlightenment and warmth, the nurturing inside community,” Howell-Sickles explains. “I can think of many times people have symbolically handed me a torch when I’m struggling with something…This is what you do among friends, community and mentors. I think it’s an essential part of who we are as humans to share the light we’re given with someone else—the passing on of what you know and love.” ~Donna Howell-Sickles
