To those who care,
Thoughts for the day: The burning candle

That little candle was burning... faintly, but surely... it was burning....

James, was it? The young lad who paced back and forth in front of the wax shop. He was definitely trying to save that little flame from being extinguished. It was still dark, dawn is merely half an hour away. The warm sunlight was visible at the horizons. His heart began to beat faster and faster. His hands, trembling as if they were freezing.

The candle wavered. The flame began to thin, slowly... and slowly.... The darkness around the candle was growing at a very quick pace. What left of the candle was not enough to fight the pending darkness...

James felt himself losing balance. Time was short... The light from within the wax shop lit up! James attention quickly focused in the room. There... in there... James smiled while tears began to roll down his cheeks.

And what little flame on the candle turned into nothing more than a smoke. The area around the candle, was wholly consumed by the darkness. The cold, bitter and lonely darkness....

The charming little princess came out of the shop. She froze on the spot as she saw the all so very familiar body lying on the floor... motionless. Then, behind her, the shop owner's son came out. He fell to his knees immediately beside the soulless body. A man he may be, but he cried like any other infant that morning.

Dawn came and the bright sun shone over the land. It gave the land light, but the candle could never light up again. Its flames were lost forever...
