Simplified meaning
Power is something you can find in all parts of life, not because it controls everything, but because it can come from many different places. For instance, in a classroom, the teacher has power because they give lessons and manage the students. However, students also have power because they can inspire each other or share knowledge. Even quiet acts, like a student helping a friend, show that power isn't just at the top. It's also in how everyone acts and interacts. This means power is shared and made by all sorts of people and actions. By understanding this, someone can recognize that they, too, have influence in their small actions and words, no matter their position.
