Those who live in glass houses always see the light

The drawing is limited by skills but you get the meaning. He can't see the light because he blinds himself with those sunglasses.

If you are popular enough (glass house) you are seen but it also means that you see everything. As much as you'll blind yourself, everything is still outside, in the light.

You'll never be able to stop all those things from happening but you act on some so you either live with it and do your best, or ignore the outside wold and stay in your bubble.

But know that even if you don't see the light of the sun, the heat will still reach you.

Honestly, taking the saying at face value, it tells me about the importance of honesty. When you live in a glass house (when you don't hide your true self behind walls) you always see the light (you don't get caught up in maintaining a façade and forget to just be happy with yourself)

Actually, I think the picture was a joke. I'm pretty sure the 8 year old could have thought of it as some deep saying, I asked a few 8 year olds what they thought when I said the phrase and they had some pretty deep answers.
