THE MAGICAL HISTORY OF CANDLES
Google it… I don’t know anything about the history of candles. I know they have been around a long time and I know one of the most expensive brands is the “yankee” candle. The Yankees probably outbid the Red Sox or Dodgers so Bed Bath and Beyond wouldn’t be selling these things…. and if you don’t follow baseball please keep reading…I’m about to make a point.
Candles are indeed magical. You see you can in almost always find a way to light your own and it can light your way to many lplaces. Also when you come across someone who needs their candle lit you can easily share the light of your candle and then you both have a light and the power to light the candles of others.
Well in the past few years I have come across a number of people…probably some of you who are reading this… who were carrying a candle and were able to light my way for a while and a few have been able to make sure my candle stayed lit when I went on my way. I have made some efforts to light the candles of others and hope they have gone on to do so.
In the end the candle is a magical thing because even if it doesn’t light the whole room it often provides a powerful aroma that reminds you of a peaceful or joyful time.
So sometime in the next week or so….light a candle either your own or someone else’s … and let the peace and joy glow on.
